Some time ago I noticed that the Python documentation has a list of GUI packages that are not part of the Python standard library. https://docs.python.org/3/library/othergui.html The title of the page I'm talking about says: Other Graphical User Interface Packages Major cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Unix-like) GUI toolkits are available for Python: What are the criteria for being listed? PySimpleGUI has more monthly installs than Kivy & WxPython. They're not due to being bundled with a Linux distribution. There is another page with a longer list: https://docs.python.org/3/faq/gui.html |

Frankly, we should probably just remove that page, or replace it with a generic "Many other GUI toolkits can be found on PyPI" message. |

The direct answer is that you open an issue like you did, make an argument, as you did, and then submit a pull request. But we certainly do not need two redundant lists. The Othergui page has a link to https://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming which is not gated and where PySimpleGUI *is* listed. I think that coredev should get out of the business of maintaining curated GUI lists. I agree that the restricted Othergui page should be deleted (and any reference thereto removed) and think that the list on the faq should be replaced by a reference to the Wiki and to PyPI. Zach, can you prepare a PR? |

I don't have the bandwidth to do so at the moment, but am willing to review one :) |

Thank you Terry! I'm glad I got it right. I've been trying to keep the wiki page updated that you mentioned as best I can: https://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming I agree with the overall conclusion that the wiki is the place these lists should live. |

Thanks all! ✨ 🍰 ✨ CPython docs are now out of the business of curating lists of GUI frameworks. |
