I want to convert some bash scripts into GUI apps using the Ubuntu SDK to create an HTML5 app.

Is this possible?

Are there any tutorials besides the 'Meanings' one that demonstrate this?

What is the web server serving the apps? You can always put shell scripts in the /cgi-bin/ folder and invoke the URL.
