Hello Sid,

I don't really think there is much in common between a Delphi desktop
app and a web app. Although you can use Delphi to write some web apps
using ISAPI/CGI/FastCGI, there may not be as much code you can reuse
as you'd hope. Also, by doing this, you are limiting yourself in the
server platform selection because it'll be Windows, and sometimes web
server selections (ISAPI requires IIS.) If this is what you'd like to
do, you can find Delphi modules for CGI/ISAPI/FastCGI.

If it does not have to be in Delphi, I'd personally prefer Python for
the web app for its productivity but further discussion is OT for this
list.
