pyFLTK
- wrapper for FLTK, Fast Light Toolkit
- cross-platform
- small and fast
- access to OpenGL
Pygame
- you are in full control
- you are responsible for everything
- only one window
- Primarily an introduction to game programming
PyGTK
- powerful - aims to be a 1:1 GTK wrapper
- good GTK docs out there for both C and Python
- it's a wrapper - sometimes C idioms leak through
Pyglet
- new
- OpenGL-y (3D)
PyGUI
- cross-platform, utilizing the underlying system's GUI facilities
- designed to work smoothly with Python's language features and data types
- API is documented purely in Python terms (so it's not necessary to read documentation for an underlying toolkit)
PyQt
- Wraps Qt
- Not just GUI features
PySide
- Wraps Qt
Api compatible with PyQt
- LGPL License
PySimpleGUI
- Wraps tkinter or Qt
- Custom GUI layouts
- Capable of complex window interactions
- Good for both beginners and professionals
PythonCard
- Wraps WX
- Easy to use
- Graphic widget insertion
- Slightly slow
Tkinter
- standard GUI toolkit included with Python
- simple and easy
wxPython
- cross platform
- doesn't always look the same though
