I am exploring the idea of creating my next desktop GUI project in Python and
would like a little advice from you folks about a couple of requirements.
My requirements will be:
1. Needs to be portable across platforms with native LAF (Windows,Linux,OSX)
2. Python 2 or 3? Which will serve me better in the future?
Thanks in advance.
The first one is certainly possible. Pick any of the well-known
toolkits (Tkinter, wxwidgets, GTK, etc), and see how it feels. All of
them are portable across the three platforms you name, so see which
one is most comfortable for you to code in and produces the best
results.
s/wxwidgets/wxpython/ unless you fancy wrapping it yourself :)
Definitely Python 3. If you don't have anything specifically holding
you to Python 2, take Python 3 and get all the latest features. Most
importantly, you'll never run into troubles with Unicode.
Definitely definitely Python 3. It's The Comfy Chair who anybody having
the audacity to disagreee on this!!!
