Todo:: Would it be useful to have information about the GUIs and development tools in a fixed format to make them more easily comparable (see WebProgrammingTemplate and WebProgrammingTemplateHelp). Some categories: directly supported widgets, addon widgets, layout managers, ...
Maybe it could answer the questions in ChoosingGuiToolkits for each toolkit?
Some available GUI's for Python:
Package
Target
Notes
Platform-specific ("native")
BeOS
MacOS
Supports both OSX and OS9
Windows
Also known by the names of its components: PythonWin (for the UI), Win32Com (for COM/ActiveX), Win32 (for some other parts of the API)
["venster"]
Windows
[http://venster.sf.net Venster] is a highly native Windows GUI toolkit for Python based on the ctypes ffi library. The aim of Venster is to be a very lightweight wrapper around the standard Win32 API, making it easy to write slick windows applications in pure Python.
Portable
Tk
Python's "standard" GUI library
supports Windows/Unix/Mac for now - visit http://www.wxwindows.org
Wax
A wrapper to WxPython, more easy and more "pythonic"
Both a framework and GUI builder. Can include wxPython code in PythonCard apps
["Jython"]
Java (swing)
Gtk / Gnome
Qt
["PyKDE"]
Qt / KDE
Python wrappers for the [http://www.kde.org/ KDE] libraries
supports Windows/Unix/Mac - visit http://pyfltk.sourceforge.net
FOX
PyPicoGUI
[http://picogui.org/ PicoGUI]
python library is included in the main PicoGUI release
many
single source code runs on many GUI back-ends, including most others in this table, plus ncurses
OpenGL
Specialized GUI Toolkit for generating GUIs for OpenGL programs.
Anyone for a GuiProgrammingShootout?
GUI builders:
IDE
Target
Notes
GPL, Alpha, but starting to mature. Useful for debugging wxPython code!
Commercial, $50-400
Commercial, $400 for single licence.
