Kiwi is pure Python and released under the LGPL. -kiwi is a framework composed of a set of modules, which eases Python -development using PyGTK. Kiwi makes graphical applications *much* -faster to code, with good architecture and more Python-like bindings; -it also offers extended widgets based upon the original PyGTK widgets. +Fully object-oriented, and roughly Smalltalk's MVC, Kiwi provides a +simple, practical way to build forms, windows and widgets that +transparently access and display your object data. Kiwi is inspired +by Allen Holub's Visual Proxy. -kiwi depends on PyGTK, which is available from SlackBuilds.org. +NOTE: Additional functionality is provided, if pygobject, zope.interface, + and/or SQLObject are installed. |
