I’m attempting to convert a Python application I coded using the cmd module into a gui. Initially, I came across EasyGui. But after giving it a try, I find that it is very limited, the gui screens are not consistent, and overall not easy on the eyes. I read about IronPython (Python + .NET), but cannot find adequate documentation on it. Before I order a book from Amazon on IronPython (as this seems the most legitimate), does anyone know of a decent gui alternative for Python? Thanks!
Tkinter is in the standard library, works on all platforms, and is fairly simple and lightweight, but it looks a bit clunky.
WxPython tries to use platform widgets, so it looks a bit better, but it’s a separate library. On Linux, I still find it doesn’t look quite right.
PyQt is a large, powerful framework – it looks good, and you can do a lot with it, but it’s more complex and a larger install.
There are plenty of others, but those are probably the most popular.
