I need to create a GUI for my next Python program. I have tinkered with wxPython but it seems a little complicated. I read that Glade is a good tool for building GUIs for use with Python. If that is so, is there an official build available for Windows? (On the Glade website it says GNOME is required, and as far as I know, that's a Linux thangy.)

Has anyone worked with wxPython or Glade who can point me in the right direction? Are there any good sites that teach either or both? Thanks.

EDIT: Hm, I found wxGlade, which seems more like what I'm looking for.

Also, does anyone know where I can find an OS X version of wxGlade? The link to wxGladeOSX on the wxGlade web page is broken. Google doesn't find much either.

Boa Constructor is a good visual wxPython form designer and IDE.

If you don't mind your app being GPLed, there always PyQt, which provides bindings for Qt. Qt comes with Qt Designer, which is a reasonably good GUI constructor.

Boa Constructor doesn't seem to be available for OS X, either. I'll look at PyQt.

After searching, I found wxGlade for Mac OS X. It comes with SPE, for those interested.

It would seem you can also download a port of it using darwinports/fink, but I couldn't get that to work.

The code is platform independent, as long as you have wxpython working you should be able to download and run Boa Contructor. It looks as though it will take some tweaking though to get working with MacPython and such, but there is not harm in giving it a try.

You're right. I saw the .exe and .zip extensions on the downloadable files and figured it was Windows only. I tried again after I read your post and was able to install it with ease (by downloading the .zip file).
