Delphi-like GUI designer for Python


Is there any GUI toolkit for Python with form designer similar to Delphi, eg where one can drag and drop controls to form, move them around etc.


Solution

  • I recommend PyQt (now from Nokia), which uses Qt Designer. Qt designer produces XML files (.ui) which you can either convert to Python modules using a utility called pyuic, or load dynamically from your Python program.

    You do have to write your Python code in a different editor, i.e. Designer is only the GUI designer part and not a complete IDE. They have an IDE in beta called Qt Creator, but I don't think it supports Python very well at this stage.

    If you'd rather go with wxPython, wxGlade will output Python code.
