I can confirm that nereid was built to make solutions like the one you are 
trying to build. Nereid is built over Flask and you should not miss a single 
thing
from Flask and we have a little documentation meant for users familiar with 
Flask but not with nereid [1]. However, some tryton experience might be
required to understand the design decisions behind nereid.

You could use Flask and achieve the same goals, but you would have to rebuild 
several of the components nereid already gives you.

To begin with you could use the nereid-pos [2] module, which uses tryton logins 
itself and was built for an upcoming iPad based POS for Tryton. 
The mobile app connects through the HTTP api provided by the nereid module.
You could take a look at the tests [3] if you need an idea on how the web 
service API works.

Good luck and if you get stuck you can ask us on the IRC.
