Question

I recently installed PTVS as I come from C# and I am used to Visual Studio. I though that PTVS had a GUI creation support like Windows Forms in C#, I am pretty disappointed as I need to program several Windows applications, and I like python.

Is there any plugin to add this functionality to PTVS? do they plan to program it in a near future?

To widen my question: Does it exist a real windows application IDE in python, with an "easy" GUI designer like Visual Studio?

Before blaming me, you have to know that I already tried BOA, Dabo, SPE Python Eclipse and Netbeans plugins, without success... I don't want a 0.7 project version from 2007... Is there something solid in there? I can't find it

thanks

Was it helpful?

Solution

From what I'm reading here and here PTVS has WPF support if you use IronPython. Here's a page that may be helpful too http://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming. Personally I'd use Qt with PyQt or PySide, you can use QtDesigner to make your forms.

OTHER TIPS

I always thought #develop was a good IDE with a good forms editor, if you're willing to use IronPython and .NET.
