htmlPy

HTML5-CSS3-Javascript based GUI library in Python

htmlPy is a wrapper around PySide's QtWebKit library. It helps with creating beautiful GUIs using HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript for standalone Python applications. It is built on Qt which makes it highly customizable and cross-platform. htmlPy is compatible with both Python2 and Python3. It can be used with any python library or environment like django, flask, scipy, virtualenv etc. You can use front-end libraries and frameworks like bootstrap, jQuery, jQuery UI etc. and create GUIs for your applications in no time.
