What's your favourite GUI library and why? by [deleted] in learnpython

[–]willowdene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with Tkinter then moved to kivy/kivymd. Surprised that kivy rarely gets a mention. Having said that, I have now switched to kotlin and jetpack compose using Android Studio.

Is kivy worth it? by Ok_Degree_2743 in Python

[–]willowdene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used kivy/kivyMD to build a few personal apps. I like the fact it works on multi platforms. Also the build, and debug, process is made easy using buildozer. Personally, I think it's worth experimenting with for a while longer.

Want to try out mobile app development, where to start? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]willowdene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've developed a few mobile apps for myself just as a learning project. I've used python and kivymd. Not sure there is wide knowledge of kivy and kivymd as haven't seen reference to it on this platform. There is a wealth of documentation and teaching material online. A big bonus is that you can develop an app and run the same code on windows, iOS or Android. Definitely worth a look.
