Does PyQT require an additional commercial license for the Qt itself? Qt's website says that its commercial license is $459/developer/month! The subscription fee is pretty hefty. So that means I pay PyQT $500 in addition to $459/month for Qt?
As much as I love Python, I don't want its GUI ecosystem to become the next Delphi.
I don't know of any other cross-platform native GUI library that even matches Qt in quality or features. I don't think WxWidgets is a contender, unless someone here proves me wrong.
EDIT: I see, all it needs is the PyQT license for $500 and the Qt is covered under LGPL, for any commercial release.
- mherrmann 9y agoQt is licensed under the LGPL. This lets you use it as a library. When you use PyQt, that's exactly what you are doing. So, you don't need a separate license for Qt. The PyQt license is usually enough. (caveat: IANAL)
