Cross-platform desktop applications with PyQT

In plain words

This is a framework for building cross-platform desktop applications using PyQT, a Python library for creating graphical user interfaces. It enables developers to write desktop software that runs on multiple operating systems from a single codebase. The project launched in 2018 and is hosted on GitHub, making it accessible for programmers interested in Python-based GUI development without needing to maintain separate code for each platform.

  Create cross-platform apps from Python (PyQt5) using pyqtdeploy2023 · github.com · ▲5

  Hi everyone, I am the developer who started the "simple-pyqt5-android-app" repo. The main reason for starting this repo is so that I can create cross-platform apps (i.e. including mobile apps), only using Python (and especially PyQt5). I have been dealing with Qt a bit and I found that it was the most suited tool to create multi-platform applications and GUI {Graphical User Interface} programs thanks to its versatily and great support. After researching existing tools, I realised that there was no tool that would help me generate cross-platform apps from a single python source code (written…

  Dropbase – Build internal web apps with just Python2023 · github.com · ▲207

  Hey HN, I’m Jimmy, co-founder of Dropbase (https://www.dropbase.io). We are an internal tools builder for Python developers. All you have to do is import any Python scripts/libraries, declare UI components, and layer app permissions so you can share them with others. We’re a middle ground between Airplane and Retool—simpler UI creation than Airplane, more code-centered than Retool. UI building is declarative and you can bind Python scripts/functions to UI components. You can write Python scripts/functions using our App Studio with support from a Python Language…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
