I teach Python programming at two different universities. At one of my
schools, there is enough time for students to do a final project. I give them
a background in event-driven programming, give them an overview in PyGame, and
encourage them to build a small PyGame based project.
I have just petitioned for and gotten approval to teach a new course on Object
Oriented Programing. In that course, I will again use Python and focus on
explaining OOP concepts using PyGame. (I'm really looking forward to this.)
However, in order to make things easy for my students, I would like to supply
them with a library (module) of easy to use user interface widgets. For
example, a simple button, text display box, text input box, checkbox, etc. I
started by giving out Al Sweigart's PygButton code to my students, and that
worked great. Then some students asked for a text display box, then a text
input box. I wound up building those myself. Along the way, I wrote additions
to Al's PygButton code (for example, adding a disabled state).
My question is: Is there any "standard" user interface widget library that many
PyGame developers use?
I have done quite a bit of research on this topic, and have found a few
libraries of widgets like what I'm looking for. I've found:
- pgu
- pqGUI
- sgc
- Albow
- gooeypy
These all seem to attempt to solve the same problem (of creating a set of user
interface widgets), but they all have different approaches. Some seem to take
over the basic event loop. And most don't seem to be current - I haven't found
any that have comments after around 2012.
So ... is there one on this list, or one that I haven't found, that seems
current and is simple to use? Or maybe, I'll just keep expanding my own.
Thanks,
Irv
Hi
Maybe kivy might be an option.

I have never used it so I have no idea how it works!
