Comment on Kivy – a cross platform Python UI frameworkparent

Comments

Kivy's marketing seems to be targeting LOB apps. If I was going to develop one of those, I'd optimize for something standardized and easy to maintain (HTML/JS) vs. the performance benefits of a native UX or cross-platform framework.

Kivy is old, so its improved more recently, but animation in HTML/JS is not power efficient.

Everything is GL accelerated, so the UI is snappy and fast.
