<dt><a class="reference external" href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/PyGObject">PyGObject</a></dt><dd><p>PyGObject provides introspection bindings for C libraries using
<a class="reference external" href="https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/stable/">GObject</a>. One of
these libraries is the <a class="reference external" href="https://www.gtk.org/">GTK+ 3</a> widget set.
GTK+ comes with many more widgets than Tkinter provides. An online
<a class="reference external" href="https://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.io/">Python GTK+ 3 Tutorial</a>
is available.</p>
</dd>
<dt><a class="reference external" href="http://www.pygtk.org/">PyGTK</a></dt><dd><p>PyGTK provides bindings for an older version
of the library, GTK+ 2. It provides an object oriented interface that
is slightly higher level than the C one. There are also bindings to
<a class="reference external" href="https://www.gnome.org/">GNOME</a>. An online <a class="reference external" href="http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial/index.html">tutorial</a> is available.</p>
</dd>
<dt><a class="reference external" href="https://riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/intro">PyQt</a></dt><dd><p>PyQt is a <strong class="program">sip</strong>-wrapped binding to the Qt toolkit. Qt is an
extensive C++ GUI application development framework that is
available for Unix, Windows and Mac OS X. <strong class="program">sip</strong> is a tool
for generating bindings for C++ libraries as Python classes, and
is specifically designed for Python.</p>
</dd>
<dt><a class="reference external" href="https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython/">PySide2</a></dt><dd><p>Also known as the Qt for Python project, PySide2 is a newer binding to the
Qt toolkit. It is provided by The Qt Company and aims to provide a
complete port of PySide to Qt 5. Compared to PyQt, its licensing scheme is
friendlier to non-open source applications.</p>
</dd>
<dt><a class="reference external" href="https://www.wxpython.org">wxPython</a></dt><dd><p>wxPython is a cross-platform GUI toolkit for Python that is built around
the popular <a class="reference external" href="https://www.wxwidgets.org/">wxWidgets</a> (formerly wxWindows)
C++ toolkit. It provides a native look and feel for applications on
Windows, Mac OS X, and Unix systems by using each platform’s native
widgets where ever possible, (GTK+ on Unix-like systems). In addition to
an extensive set of widgets, wxPython provides classes for online
documentation and context sensitive help, printing, HTML viewing,
low-level device context drawing, drag and drop, system clipboard access,
an XML-based resource format and more, including an ever growing library
of user-contributed modules.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<p>PyGTK, PyQt, PySide2, and wxPython, all have a modern look and feel and more
widgets than Tkinter. In addition, there are many other GUI toolkits for
Python, both cross-platform, and platform-specific. See the <a class="reference external" href="https://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming">GUI Programming</a> page in the Python Wiki for a
much more complete list, and also for links to documents where the
different GUI toolkits are compared.</p>
