Getting started w/ Python on the desktop


I'm interested in getting started w/ developing Python based applications for a desktop environment and have a few (seemingly simple) questions:

  1. What is the best method for developing GUI applications? I've seen several frameworks but the indexes I've found are a bit convoluted and mix (what seem to be) legacy packages. In your opinion, what is the best approach in this regard?
  2. I've been reading a few books I recently picked up, but have been having trouble finding (rather, recognizing) a decent 'getting started' tutorial that focuses on Python apps for the desktop. Do you have any recommendations?

Thanks very much in advance! :)


Solution

    1. wxPython is the best GUI framework.
    2. The official docs are the best resource. They helped me quite a bit.
