Hello and good day to all of you.

I wouldn't normally start a thread without first rigorously searching 
through a group to see if somebody else has asked the 'exact' same question 
before (turns out that a lot of times, they have), but I haven't found such 
a question yet for Google App Engine.

My question is:

Can you use Google App Engine to host web/mobile apps that are built using 
only HTML, CSS and JS (with/without database interaction) ?

According to what I've come across recently, it is just as easy and 
powerful to build an app for a mobile/smartphone or PC using HTML5, CSS3 
and JavaScript as it would be to use a language like Python or Java (some 
people may have gripes about such a suggestion, but realistically speaking, 
a lot can be done with those languages).

It also seems that using HTML and JS can actually make cross-platform 
development much easier than starting scratch for each new platform(which 
is why services like "phonegap" are popular).

Hopefully somebody experienced in using the GAE services will be able to 
assist with this answer (as I am sure a ton of developers will probably 
have this exact question in the future - when cross-platform development 
does become very popular).

I am also asking this before I sign-up to GAE, as it may turn out that 
HTML, CSS and JS development is not suitable for the GAE services and maybe 
another option developers can consider is the AWS-free option (which seems 
as though it can handle any development).

I look forward to hearing from you guys soon.
