Choosing a GUI Framework / Tool Kit / Libraries - Python programming
This video goes through some of the different libraries, tool kits and frameworks that I looked at when looking to create a Python GUI program to run on Linux and Windows.
Whether you are looking at creating your first GUI with GUIZero, Novel GUI interface using Pygame Zero for Makers or a professional looking program
using PyGTK / PyGObject or PyQt / PySide.
I've included examples of my own programs throughout the video along with some of my personal experience. It explains about the decision I made for my current project and some of the difficulties I found with different versions of the libraries.
