I found this in my logs from 2013 and it looks really nice now. Another example app with Kivy + SQLite: Image Viewer and Organizer, https://github.com/gau-veldt/ImageOrg https://github.com/gau-veldt/ImageOrg This is also interesting: http://libnui.github.io/nui3/ http://libnui.github.io/nui3/ I'm not exactly sure anymore about the relation. Is Kivy based on libnui?

> ImageOrg I see a few files, but no instructions. Isn't kivy supposed to be a GUI building tool? Where is the exe or dmg file?

  The user hasn't packaged this into a standalone executable (though this is possible with e.g. pyinstaller). You need to run the ImageOrg.py file with python.

No, kivy has no relation to libnui.

Kivy looks very nice but NUI is a very different beast (I'm the author). The main difference being that even though NUI is a complete multi-plateform framework that uses OpenGL for rendering, it has a strictly C++ API. If you want to see apps built with NUI I just released reChord: http://bit.ly/rechord http://bit.ly/rechord And also some very nice music apps with NUI: http://intua.net/products/beatmaker2/ http://intua.net/products/beatmaker2/ http://www.whitenoiseaudio.com/apps/genome-midi-sequencer/ http://www.whitenoiseaudio.com/apps/genome-midi-sequencer/ http://www.whitenoiseaudio.com/apps/bleepbox/ http://www.whitenoiseaudio.com/apps/bleepbox/

  In the GitHub description (https://github.com/kivy/kivy https://github.com/kivy/kivy), it says about Kivy: "Open source software library for creating NUI applications, running on Windows, Linux, MacOSX, Android and iOS" I guess that is why I searched for NUI and I probably found your lib. I don't remember that I have heard that term "NUI" before.

    I've been using the name for 13 years or so but a number of other libs started using the acronym unfortunately (New UI, Natural UI, etc.). I should have been more vocal and public about the lib from the beginning :-).

  Some nice looking apps there: well done!
