GUI choice #15

Closed DarkmatterVale closed 8 years ago

DarkmatterVale commented 8 years ago

JARVIS's UI will be a GUI. A decision has to be made however on what library is used. I have used TKinter before, and I do not think that is very modern. I am currently leaning towards Kivy, although that will require a separate installation process.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

Kivy seems very modern and looks like it would be a good choice.

Also, have you considered setting this up as a web application? You could do the processing in the background with something like django and build a web based gui to access it. Then it could run locally on a computer, or be scaled up to be hosted on a server if you ever chose to do so.

I have considered creating this as a web application. I originally thought about using Electron ( http://electron.atom.io ), but my thought process was that seemed to be too much work :) . I will check out Django. Thank you for the help (and let me know if you would want to help do some coding....)!

No problem. Let me know if there is anything I can help out with. I also have a good amount of experience with django if you choose to go that route.

DarkmatterVale commented 8 years ago

Django looks like a great idea; much better than Kivy. After doing some work, I have a test site (albeit completely unrelated to this).

I need to get a prototype of the site working first, but then I would really appreciate any help you are willing to provide. Thanks!

This is related to a chat site since we will be using Django, so I'm gonna close this issue.
