Curtains

A Windows GUI toolkit for Python

Curtains is an easy to use, well-documented GUI toolkit with a pythonic API for creating beautiful applications on Windows. It isn't a "port" of some other toolkit written in another language; Curtains was designed for and built in Python from the ground up. The API is designed so that it is both easy to learn, and natural for python programmers.

Development is being done on Launchpad.

If you have any questions or requests about anything having to do with Curtains, send an email to curtains-project@lists.sourceforge.net, or try #curtains on freenode.
