Hello Qt for Python

Not OP, I've been very impressed with some enlightenment apps written using python.

In particular: https://github.com/DaveMDS/egitu

https://phab.enlightenment.org/w/projects/python_bindings_fo...

Scroll down to "python projects using EFL".

I wouldn't use enlightenment/EFL for a new project today. If you've got the opportunity to greenfield, Qt is a much nicer framework.

EFL has a number of questionable design choices, covered a little bit here: https://what.thedailywtf.com/topic/15001/enlightened .

I feel so grateful that my first GUI toolkit is Cocoa touch which is mature in design. At least the typing just works and object ownership is well defined.

I had not heard of enlightenment, so took a peek but as far as I could make out from the docs, it is linux/unix project? I saw nothing about MacOS or Windows... did I miss it?

[Py]Qt of course is cross-platform with the local look/feel.

Thank you, that looks very interesting. I'm not sure if it's cross-platform, but I'll play with it a bit and see.
