wxWidgets
'''''''''
wxWidgets is a GUI class library written in C++ that's a portable
interface to various platform-specific libraries, and that has a
Python interface called `wxPython <http://www.wxpython.org>`__.
wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org) is a free, portable GUI class
library written in C++ that provides a native look and feel on a
number of platforms, with Windows, MacOS X, GTK, X11, all listed as
current stable targets. Language bindings are available for a number
of languages including Python, Perl, Ruby, etc.
wxWidgets preserves the look and feel of the
underlying graphics toolkit, and has a large set of widgets and
collection of GDI classes. See `the wxWidgets page
<http://www.wxwidgets.org>`_ for more details.
wxPython (http://www.wxpython.org) is the Python binding for
wxwidgets. While it often lags slightly behind the official wxWidgets
releases, it also offers a number of features via pure Python
extensions that are not available in other language bindings. There
is an active wxPython user and developer community.
Both wxWidgets and wxPython are free, open source, software with
permissive licences that allow their use in commercial products as
well as in freeware or shareware.
wxWidgets supports Windows and MacOS; on Unix variants,
it supports both GTk+ and Motif toolkits.
