Any Python Devs? What UI?
-
PyQT
kivy works for me - good results on windows & android

This really is more of a poll and not a technical question. I'm wondering what is _really_ used to build the User Interface for python programs? I know there is Django (web-based python that would use HTML), but what about desktop apps? Is it still 95% Tkinter? Just curious what you Professional Python Devs are using. EDIT Secondary: Maybe desktop apps are just out for Python??? In that case, is that the answer...Most Python is just used for command-line scripting type of apps, data-type apps that work on data with no graphical output?
Over the last 15 or 20 years, I've used wxPython and web-browser UI. Alternatives haven't filled the bill for one reason or another. Question: How have I chosen between wx and browser? Answer: Which was used for the most recent project? Use the other. Seriously, the grass has been oddly greener over several cycles. So, apparently, my next project will be browser-based. Because the last one was wx. Note: I've wanted to use Tkinter because it comes with Python. But, jeez. Have you experienced its out-of-box?

We build GUIs for Desktop in Python all the time in the visual effects industry, using Qt as the main library. While Qt is primarily C++, there are full python bindings (official as well) that you can use to create your interfaces without ever leaving Python.
