Using NetBeans for Python GUI development

Question

Is NetBeans recommended for developing a GUI for a Python app?

Does it have a form/screen builder for Python apps, like Dabo?

Answer 1

Although it isn't "built-in" to Netbeans, I've found Qt Designer to be an excellent tool for building GUIs for Python. Of course, this only works if you're using PyQt or PySide but it's kept me quite happy for years. According to the Netbeans Docs, integrated Qt Designer support is available. I haven't tried it personally to see if it works from within a Python project but even if it doesn't I doubt the annoyance of launching Designer by hand would be sufficient to disuade you from using an otherwise excellent tool.
