Using the source is really easy and definitely the way to go once you've
got your feet under the desk.
Python even comes with OS X, although go to python.org and update it
perhaps.
I use OS X and I can't even remember the 'app' version. You just go into a
terminal, cd to the folder where you have the source, and execute
python web2py.py
Then some point further you'll probably wish you had timely access not just
to the most recent released version of the source, but to the development
version ("trunk"). At that point, you'll install git and learn how to
"clone" web2py, which is another way of getting the source in a folder, but
with the ability to access any released version and "trunk".
Note that the web2py book is actually a web2py app, so you can download it
and run it via web2py.
