Purpose: to gather into one place references and material regarding tools a developer might use to create the framework of an application with a [GUI]. [[Big needs: a statement about how much [Tk] developers do withOUT GUI builders; and brief status indications in regards to current support]] [[is there current support for ''any'' of these?]] [adavis] (28th July 2009) I'm still developing/supporting [GRIDPLUS2]. The most recent release was 6th February 2009 - I have a new release ready, for which I'm currently doing the finishing touches to the documentation. ---- * [Basic GUI Builder] * cbuild available in [ClassyTk] * [cells] * [FriGUI] * [GRIDPLUS2] * [Gub] * [GUIBuilder] - [http://spectcl.sourceforge.net/ko3-guib-docs/komodo-doc-guibuilder.html%|%GUIBuilder%|%] * [Iplace] * [JTcl] * [JX Development Suite] * [Laying out widgets in a grid] * [MetaGUI] * [Move any widget] with '''t'''cl/tk '''G'''ui '''G'''enerator (tG²) * [MyrmecoX] * [http://puretkgui.co.cc/%|%PureTkGUI%|%] * [SpecTcl]/SpecTix * [Spynergy Weblet Developer] * [TixXf] * [tkBuilder] * [TKproE], perhaps, in 2005, the most current of these * [TkVSform] * [VAD] * Visual[Gipsy] * [Visual Tcl] * [Wafe] * [xf] ---- Sometimes, people recommend [A poor mans GUI] when a question about GUI Building Tools come up. Its form-based model applies to many (most?) GUI applications. ---- Sometimes people confuse a GUI builder with an ''integrated development environment'' (aka [IDE]). A GUI builder typically is just about building the GUI, and seldom has debugging facilities, code management capabilities, etc. [Eclipse] is an IDE. Anyone know if it also includes a GUI builder? ---- [TV] In general [bwise] is not a GUI or GUI builder tool, but as part of its functionality, it has strong gui building facilities, except not as average Tk program, but as part of its canvas. The Model view controller type of thinking is easily to follow and make with bwise, as in this simple example: [A little multiplication toy]. ---- [WJG] If one is not confined to Tk UIs but considers other UI toolkits, there is also Glade [http://glade.gnome.org/] for Gnocl.
