PyQt is a Python port of QT library. Our PyQt tutorial can be found here. Similarly, wxPython toolkit is Python binding for wxWidgets, another popular cross-platform GUI library. Our wxPython tutorial is available here.
GTK+, or the GIMP Toolkit, is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites.
GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a wide range of languages. PyGTK is a Python wrapper for GTK+.
GTK+ is built around the following four libraries −
- Glib − A low-level core library that forms the basis of GTK+. It provides data structure handling for C.
- Pango − A library for layout and rendering of text with an emphasis on internationalization.
- Cairo − A library for 2D graphics with support for multiple output devices (including the X Window System, Win32)
- ATK − A library for a set of interfaces providing accessibility tools such as screen readers, magnifiers, and alternative input devices.
PyGTK eases the process and helps you create programs with a
graphical user interface using the Python programming language. The
underlying GTK+ library provides all kinds of visual elements and
utilities for it to develop full-featured applications for the GNOME
Desktop. PyGTK is a cross-platform library. It is a free software
distributed under the LGPL license.PyGTK is built around GTK + 2.x. In order to build applications for GTK +3, PyGObject bindings are also available.
