Thanks for the feedback! I cover some of the "why" in the docs, but I agree the homepage could do a better job of making the case for a new UI toolkit. The short version: * System native widgets, not themes * Installable via "pip install" - no third party or binary dependencies * Not just naïve wrappers around widgets - capture the underlying use case and provide an API wrapper. * Genuinely Python native. This means exploiting language specific features (like generators and context managers)

"Python native" is an oxymoron, given the language's interpreted nature. "Python-idiomatic" would probably be a more correct choice of words. But that's just me.

  I think that is typically called "pythonic".

wxPython has system native widgets in every platform. wxWidgets has system native widgets in every platform, and it is the only one I know that provides that. May be you are thinking about some other toolkit that's not wxWidgets.
