In this thread there seems to be no end of comments seeking to tear down the project under consideration.
In my opinion, this project is a good initiative and more folks should take a page from this project's book. Even if you think such a project is critically flawed, an effort to thread a needle and help the community deserves praise and constructive feedback. In this particular case, the author(s?) is apparently taking the time to study a broad selection of UI frameworks and synthesize what they are learning into something everyone can benefit from. That's awesome, and I hope they keep up the good work
- carapace 7y agoIt's been done. Done and done and done. https://wiki.python.org/moin/AnyGui https://wiki.python.org/moin/AnyGui > The purpose of AnyGui project was (development stopped in 2002) to create a generic access API to different types of GUI libraries found to work with Python. The name is inspired by the standard Python module anydbm, which provides generic access to DBM-style databases. That's just one example of a meta-gui framework. Without an extensive "related work" section this is just navel-gazing.
- skue 7y agoThey aren’t the same thing at all. This isn’t trying to be a framework, it’s simply a lexicon.
- carapace 7y agoSo it's even less useful? Apologies for the snark. I'm actually in favor of the general idea. And these folks seem like they might know a thing or two: https://www.w3.org/community/wicg/participants https://www.w3.org/community/wicg/participants I would be way more impressed though if there was a nice "related work" section.
