which tool would you prefer to develop python gui applications under Linux?
Hi @Ahmad welcome to the forum.
It depends what you mean by “tool”. If you mean library, that depends on which distribution you’re targeting. If it’s Ubuntu, or a KDE-derived distribution Qt makes the most sense. For others, Qt is still fine but will require users to install those dependencies (how much people mind about that depends on the distro).
If you’re asking for UI builders, if you use Qt then you can use Qt Designer (the WYSIWYG editor). That works fine on Linux (like all Qt apps).
Hope that helps
Hi Martin
Actually I meant rather the most suitable development environment for python application specially for gui applications. Currently I am using eclipse, because I use eclipse together with eclipse swt for gui applications since a long time.
Thanks for a response
I personally use PyCharm (for Windows and Linux) next option is VS Code.
I have a search since several years in Open sources Editor and finally, I’m using (since several years) PyCharm Community Edition. He is really done/the best for Python and specially for PyQt/PySide and Django.
