Muntjac includes only a default widget set as standard. The sampler demo requires additional themes and widget sets. To run the sampler first download both the default and sampler widget sets. Then extract them to the same directory. class HelloWorld(Application): def init(self): main = Window('Hello window') self.setMainWindow(main) main.addComponent(Label('Hello World!'))

Python is a great language with many awesome features, but its default GUI package (TkInter) is rather ugly. Besides, who wants to write all that GUI code by hand, anyway? Instead, a much better way to write GUI apps in Python is to use Trolltech's QT Designer to WYSIWYG-ly create a nice-looking interface, and then automatically generate the necessary code for it with pyuic (which is a UI compiler for QT that comes with the PyQT package.) QT designer also makes it very easy to add Python code to your project.
PyQT Tutorial
While both QtScript and PythonQt make it very easy to embed scripting into your existing Qt Application, this article will focus on the PythonQt binding, leaving an in-depth look at QtScript for a later article to cover. Making a C++ application scriptable has several benefits: Scripting APIs can range from a simple interface that allows activities such as batch processing of common application tasks to a fully-fledged interface that allows the user to customize/extend the menus and dialogs, and even to access the core functionality of the application (e.g., JavaScript in Web Browsers).
Embedding Python into Qt Applications
About PyQt PyQt is Python bindings developed by Riverbank Computing Limited for the Qt cross-platform GUI/XML/SQL C++ framework. Qt itself is developed by Nokia's Qt Development Frameworks (formerly Trolltech). PyQt provides bindings for Qt 2 and Qt 3.

The PySide project provides LGPL -licensed Python bindings for the Qt cross-platform application and UI framework, as well as a complete toolchain for rapidly generating bindings for any Qt-based C++ class hierarchies. PySide Qt bindings allow both free open source and proprietary software development and ultimately aim to support all of the platforms as Qt itself.

Python has a huge number of GUI frameworks (or toolkits) available for it, from Tkinter (traditionally bundled with Python, using Tk) to a number of other cross-platform solutions, as well as bindings to platform-specific (also known as "native") technologies. The major cross-platform technologies upon which Python frameworks are based include Gtk, Qt, Tk and wxWidgets, although many other technologies provide actively maintained Python bindings. ("Anygui is no longer being actively developed or supported.") single source code runs on many GUI back-ends, including many in this table, plus ncurses Jython is an implementation of the high-level, dynamic, object-oriented language Python seamlessly integrated with the Java platform.
