Wine?

VMWare?

Useful while you're recreating.  I know of nothing that really does it
like magic, though recently using Joomla and Fabrik I was able to
easily create forms and tables and rot like that without excessive
pain.  It's not really powerful unless you want to write custom PHP
scripts to handle some postprocessing, but it does work.
