I used Sqlite and Python for a project a few years ago. SQLite was great, including a few third-party viewers. The Python binding was a bit much to comfortably wrap my brain around as fast as I wanted to. I was learning Python, SQL, and re-learning HTML forms and static-state programming, all at the same time, and making printable forms. Python has a really nice minimal server for local websites.
I tried Apache and PHP for a local installation of WordPress and was not happy with it. Too many settings that I didn't understand.
