Toga

Toga is a Python native, OS native, cross platform GUI toolkit. Toga consists of a library of base components with a shared interface to simplify platform-agnostic GUI development.

Toga is available on Mac OS, Windows, Linux (GTK), and mobile platforms such as Android and iOS.

Quickstart

In your virtualenv, install Toga, and then run it:

$ pip install toga-demo
$ toga-demo

This will pop up a GUI window showing the full range of widgets available to an application using Toga.

Getting Started

To get started, you can dive into our Tutorials </tutorial/index> or check out the widget Reference </reference/index>.

Prerequisites

Toga has some minimum requirements:

  • If you're on OS X, you need to be on 10.7 (Lion) or newer.
  • If you're on Linux, you need to have GTK+ 3.4 or later. This is the version that ships with Ubuntu 12.04; you'll need to have the python3-gi package installed. If you want to use the WebView widget, you'll also need to have WebKit, plus the GI bindings to WebKit (gir1.2-webkit-3.0) installed.

If these requirements aren't met, Toga either won't work at all, or won't have full functionality.

Community

Toga is part of the BeeWare suite. You can talk to the community through:
