Boa Constructor - IDE for Python™ and wxWindows

Home Page: http://boa-constructor.sourceforge.net

Boa Constructor is a cross-platform PythonIDE (Integrated Development Environment) and wxPython GUI (Graphical User Interface) builder. It offers visual frame creation and manipulation, an object inspector, and many views on the source — like object browsers, inheritance hierarchies, doc string generated HTML documentation, an advanced debugger, and integrated help. It includes Zope support: Object creation and editing, cut, copy, paste, import and export. It also includes property creation and editing in the Inspector and Python™ Script debugging. Boa Constructor is written in Python™, uses Python™ as its language, and uses the wxPython library which wraps wxWindows.

Boa Constructor is under slow development at version 0.5.1, having taken five years to rise from 0.4.3. At that rate it will take another 10 years for version 1.0 to be released. Part of the slow development problem is that Boa Constructor is a mix of several different projects (Python™, wxPython, etc.), each having their own development schedules. Python™ has also undergone a radical version change. Coordination of these projects can be problematic or show-stopping. There are no usable applications built with Boa Constructor in the repository, and none can be found on the Internet.
