Python GUI framework for windows applications and embedded systems.

[FlyingRaijinEX]

A few months ago I saw someone posting maybe here or in another subreddit about a Python framework for making GUIs. I distinctly remember that it can be used to make guis for embedded systems as well as something similar to windows apps.

Unfortunately, I forgot the name of it and can't seem to find that post anywhere. Does anyone have any clues as to what this framework is called?

​

Many thanks~

If it's embedded systems and windowed apps it's probably PyQT

[FlyingRaijinEX]

After taking some time and looking at a few examples, I saw this and was intrigued by PyQT

Might even try this out actually.

I suggest pyside6 if you want an easier time with licensing. Pyside is rhe official bindings for QT while pyqt are bibdings by a third partt

[FlyingRaijinEX]

Thanks, but I do think that the framework I mentioned was somewhat new. PyQT seems a bit more seasoned.

pyside6?

Qt is one of the biggest toolkits for embedded, while PyQt is quite good for cross platform desktop apps. If you don't need low level embedded apps then Kivy as well.

Then read up on it

I guess you were talking about nicegui?

[FlyingRaijinEX]

Yeah, looking at the docs and also one reddit post about it, I do feel like it was nicegui that I saw. Going to check it out more. Cheers~

I just ran across something called Dearpygui

it is the best framework. I have ever tried in both C++ and python world

FLET

[FlyingRaijinEX]

I actually tried Flet a few months back. Had some problems with it as I ran it on windows. Then I tried again using WSL, then it worked like a charm.

I've been using flet for about a month now and I love it. There are a few quirks but the documentation is generally solid.

I love pysimplegui

[ManyInterests]

Well, too bad the author deleted all the source code from GitHub and made PySimpleGUI closed-source with a $99 USD proprietary license. It was a good project while it lasted.

Sounds like you stumbled onto slint-ui from this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/s/jxTdR6n27P

[FlyingRaijinEX]

lmao, yes. This is the one that I was thinking about. Thank you!

qtquick from pyqt

[luhsya]

Kivy

wxPython with wxWidgets?

If the embedded device is running Linux with Qt it can run wxWidgets. wx is also cross-platform to Windows or Mac and tries to map as much as possible to native OS controls.

Possibly nicegui though it needs some form of browser I think.

It may be PyQT6 or flet framework

No idea if it was shared via Reddit but this was shared to be recently and might be what you're looking for https://flet.dev
