Demo desktop apps built with Python & Qt. With examples for PyQt6, PySide6, PyQt5 & PySide2

Python GUIs Examples

This repository contains 100s of GUI examples written in Python. From complete working applications to reusable widgets snippets, these examples can be freely re-used, re-mixed and tweaked to build your own Python GUI applications.

Examples are available for PyQt6, PySide6, PySide2 and PyQt5

Many of these examples have more detailed write-ups on the Python GUIs website. If you're new to creating GUI apps check out the introductory PyQt6 tutorial or PySide6 tutorial.

The demo apps

The apps showcase various parts of the Qt framework, including advanced widgets, multimedia, graphics views and decorationless windows. However, the most generally interesting/feature complete applications are Minesweeper, Solitaire and Paint.

1. Web Browser (untabbed) - "MooseAche"
2. Web Browser (tabbed) - "Mozzarella Ashbadger"
3. Minesweeper - "Moonsweeper"
4. Notepad - "No2Pads"
5. Calculator - "Calculon" (QtDesigner)
6. Word Processor - "Megasolid Idiom"
7. Webcam/Snapshot - "NSAViewer"
8. Media Player - "Failamp"
9. Post-it Notes - "Brown Note" (QtDesigner)
10. Paint - "Piecasso" (QtDesigner)
11. Unzip - "7Pez" (QtDesigner)
12. Translator - "Translataarrr" (QtDesigner)
13. Weather - "Raindar" (QtDesigner)
14. Currency converter - "Doughnut" (PyQtGraph)
15. Solitaire - "Ronery" (QGraphicsScene)

The widgets

Graphical Equalizer Visualize audio frequency changes with configurable styles and decay.

Power Bar Rotary control with amplitude display.

Palette Select colors from a configurable linear or grid palette.

Linear Gradient Editor Design custom linear gradients with multiple stops and colors.

Color Button Simple button that displays and selects colors.

Paint Draw pictures with a custom bitmap canvas, with color and pen control.

Password Edit A password line editor with toggleable visibility action.

Replace checkboxes with this handy toggle widget, with custom colors and optional animations.

The tutorials

As well as the complete apps & re-usable widgets we've got selection of code snippets taken from tutorials on the Python GUIs website. These guide you through building GUIs with PyQt, PySide and other libraries.

Getting started

To use each app you first need to install the requirements. In most cases the only requirements are the GUI library and occasionally requests. To install example specific requirements change to the folder of the example and run:

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Once the requirements are installed, you can run the app. Every example in this repo comes with a main Python file called main.py to keep things simple.

python3 main.py

The application window should appear.

Want to build your own apps?

If you think these apps are neat and want to learn more about take a look at my PyQt6 tutorial which covers everything you need to know to start building your own applications with Python.

You can also find more write-ups and tips on the same site.

License

All code is licensed under an MIT license. This allows you to re-use the code freely, remixed in both commercial and non-commercial projects. The only requirement is to include the same license when distributing.

Other licenses

Browser crashes when saving file

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "browser.py", line 163, in save_file
    html = self.browser.page().toHtml()
TypeError: toHtml(self, Callable[[str], None]): not enough arguments
Aborted (core dumped)

To recreate:

1. First, open any page in the browser.
2. Then, click the File->Save menu option.
3. Give it any name, and click save.
4. The browser will hang for a second, then crash.

I tested it on google.com and xkcd.com, using normal filenames with no special characters.
I am on Ubuntu 20.10 using a venv with python 3.8 and the latest packages required by requirements.txt.

No Data is being pulled from the Api.

for calculator, is sip needed?

playing with calculator I received

 python calculator.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "calculator.py", line 1, in <module>
    from PyQt5.QtGui import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sip'

in response

pipenv install sip

afterwards it seemed to run

The tabbed browser can't open the target="_blank" link. Is there any way to solve it? thanks

Found bugs

原计算器不支持小数点计算

原计算器不支持小数点计算

calculator: input integer overflows when > 0x7FFFFFFF(or 2147483647)

QLCDNumber overflows when input >= 2147483648. (For example: input 9999999999...9)

https://github.com/mfitzp/15-minute-apps/blob/b99eb330310fe7302ead39473ef0d34cccb3d12d/calculator/calculator.py#L62-L67

Since integer has an limit of 0x7FFFFFFF(or 2147483647), casting it into float using self.stack[-1] = float(v) would be better.

Currency: legacy api.fixer.io

The currency.py uses a fixer.io legacy API (api.fixer.io).
As of March 6th 2018, the legacy fixer API is deprecated, to use the service we need a (free, but registration-bound) fixer access token. So i believe it is needed to replace

url = 'http://api.fixer.io/{}'.format(when.isoformat())

with

url = 'http://data.fixer.io/api/{}?access_key=12345678900000000000000000000000'.format(when.isoformat())

where of course 12345678900000000000000000000000 is your personal access key.

Mozarella Ashbadger: Proxy Connection

How would you add a proxy to Mozarella Ashbadger?

Please mentions pyqt5 or pyqt4

Please mentions the version of python and version of PyQt used in description / README :

1. Python2 or Python3
2. PyQt4 or PyQt5 or Both.

notes requires sqlalchemy, but not in requirements.txt
