PyCharm + Kivy/Buildozer = UI
Hi all,
If there is anything in the Python community that seems kind of vital right now, it seems to be the Kivy project.
I have done some stuff with it now, and the only thing that is missing is proper IDE support.
I used to develop windows applications using Delphi on windows, and using Delphi, one can now write apps and applications for several platforms. And I must say that so far, I have seen is nothing that tops Delphi when it comes to RAD UI development. It is very fast.
However, I like Python far more, and Delphi is quite expensive.
So what does this have to do with PyCharm?
Well. Embarcadero had to write their IDE and platform from the ground up.
If Jetbrains would like to make a similar move, they would not have to put in even a fraction of that work.
Because as Delphi has it forms, Kivy has .kv files. So the "only" thing Jetbrains has to do, is to make a GUI for editing these files, integrate with buildozer, and voilà, there is a new and heavy contender in the UI development market.
Think about it. Wouldn't that be great?
