wxWidgets is a C++ library that lets developers create applications for
Windows, OS X, Linux and UNIX on 32-bit and 64-bit
architectures as well as several mobile platforms including Windows Mobile,
iPhone SDK and embedded GTK+.
It has popular language bindings for Python,
Perl, Ruby
and many other languages.
Unlike other cross-platform toolkits, wxWidgets gives its applications
a truly native look and feel
because it uses the platform's native API rather than emulating the GUI.
It's also extensive, free, open-source and mature.
Why not give it a try, like many others have?

Google Drive Uses wxWidgets
2012-05-03
The recently released Google Drive
system desktop client
uses wxPython.
Considering that Dropbox desktop client
is also written in wxPython it could be taken as a proof that wxWidgets
provides a solid foundation for cloud-based systems!
And as Google Drive application uses wxWidgets 2.9.3, it should hopefully help
answering the often-asked question if 2.9 series is good enough for production
use.

wxWidgets 2.9.3 Released
2011-12-14
wxWidgets 2.9.3 has been officially released. It is available from the
usual locations at
SourceForge
and
FTP mirror. Please read
the change log
if you're upgrading from a previous version. And please see
online documentation
for more details.
2.9 series bring many improvements compared to 2.8 series such as much
better and simpler to use support for Unicode and the new wxOSX/Cocoa port,
suitable for development of 64 bit GUI applications under OS X, as well as a
huge number of other new features and bug fixes. Compared to the previous 2.9.2
release, the most important change in this release is the integration of the
new wxWebView
library. Other additions include
wxTreeListCtrl,
wxTimePickerCtrl,
wxRichToolTip and
wxBannerWindow
as well as many incremental improvements and bug fixes to the existing classes.
While this is still officially a development release because some API details
are still not frozen, we believe that 2.9.3 can be used in production
environment, especially for the new projects for which (small) changes in
behaviour since 2.8 are not a problem. Give it a try and let us know what do
you think!
