"A brilliant library for creating multi-platform applications."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Kivy?

I liked the easiness of the language used in it and also the interface which can be developed by using kivy is much good looking than tkinter library. It seems to be like languages like css which makes keywords more rememberable. Also it liked it to be a platform independent app as my friend uses kivy on his windows system and I use to work on Mac and we didn't feel much difference. I liked kivy for being adjustable as automatically manages its size according to available window it gets and also resizes its text which kind of amazes me. There are many libraries but kivy in a short span of time becomes one of mt favourite library to use with python programming language by its simplicity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kivy?

According to me it should use less processing power. Apart from that its all good . Also installation can be made easy (not necessarily) but everything needs improvement or can be improved. I disliked the the fact it sometimes during my execution of code it crashed which can be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Kivy:

I would say that if you are a new developer then you can go for kivy rather than tkinter as it creates better interface that tkinter would do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kivy solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use kivy to create desktop applications as I have created a desktop application which wasn't there actually and I think kivy made it really easy for me to create one as it was the application of that kind that I made and it was really fun to do it with python programming language and kivy library.
