Welcome to wxPython’s Project Phoenix! Phoenix is the improved next-generation wxPython, “better, stronger, faster than he was before.” This new implementation is focused on improving speed, maintainability and extensibility. Just like “Classic” wxPython, Phoenix wraps the wxWidgets C++ toolkit and provides access to the user interface portions of the wxWidgets API, enabling Python applications to have a native GUI on Windows, Macs or Unix systems, with a native look and feel and requiring very little (if any) platform specific code.

For more information please refer to the README file, the Migration Guide, or the wxPython API documentation.

Archive files containing a copy of the wxPython documentation, the demo and samples, and also a set of MSVC .pdb files for Windows are available here.

The utility tools wxdocs and wxdemo will download the appropriate files with wxget, (if necessary), unpack them, (if necessary) and launch the appropriate version of the respective items. (Documents are launched in the default browser and demo is started with python).
