Cool!

You're setting up the service to run "run.sh" but the snapcraft.yaml is
copying that to "bin/run.sh". So you need to change your snapcraft.yaml
to execute the shell script correctly.

You also need to start your server with the python 3 interpreter which
is "python3" not "python."

Lastly you need to tell Snappy to open the port for your webserver, so
you need this in your snapcraft.yaml (attached):

   ports:
     external:
       cherrypi:
         port: 3092/tcp
         negotiable: false

I've attached the snapcraft.yaml that I edited.
