Is KIVY good for desktop apps?

Kivy undeniably doesn’t fit in with other applications on the desktop due to its not using ‘native’ widgets from whatever toolkit is popular on a given platform. Some people do use it for desktop apps if they don’t care about this.

Use the default python that comes with kivy by doing the following: install kivy . check to see if that installed a command line link properly: (use the terminal, if you see the second line after typing the first line you are good)

Kivy Designer is Kivy’s tool for designing Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) from Kivy Widgets . You can compose and customize widgets, and test them. It is completely written in Python using Kivy.
