GUI-Framework: wxWindows

Ergonomics and User's Efficiency

The GUI framework wxWindows supports the programming of applications with native graphical user frontends. wxWindows translates the native API available on your certain platform to a standard interface, to make your application independent of the underlying native platform.

You can access this functionality with C/C++ or in cooperation with wxPython also in Python. So you can develop ergonomic and high performance GUI applications with Python or C/C++.

Build rapidly cool Frontends for many Operating Systems

Some of the Most Important Features

• Native graphical interfaces for countless desktop platforms and mobile devices (PDA, cell phones, etc.)
• Wide range of often needed controls (i.e. text and bitmap buttons, input fields, scrolling lists, checkboxes)
• Additional, innovative controls for improved usability (i.e. wxTreeCtrl, wxNotebook, wxSplitterWindow)
• Capable event-system on static and dynamic base
• Extensive printer-support, including option menues and print preview (implemented by common MS Windows features, respectively PostScript on Unix)
• Debugging (also navigatable by MS Developer Studio); Multithreading, integrated network support (i.e. FTP, HTTP)
• Support of most common C++ compilers on Windows and Unix
• Drag & Drop; embedded HTML windows; OpenGL integration for high performant 3D graphics
• Comfortable updates of interfaces; support of multilanguage interfaces
• And many more
