wxpython Getting started with wxpython Hello World

Example

A simple way to create a Hello World program:

import wx
app = wx.App(redirect=False)
frame = wx.Frame(parent=None, id=wx.ID_ANY, title='Hello World')
frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()

Output:

A more typical example would be to subclass wx.Frame:

import wx

class MyFrame(wx.Frame):

    def __init__(self):
        wx.Frame.__init__(self, None, title='Hello World')
        self.Show()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = wx.App(redirect=False)
    frame = MyFrame()
    app.MainLoop()

This can also be rewritten to use Python's super:

import wx  

class MyFrame(wx.Frame):
        
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        """Constructor"""
        super(MyFrame, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.Show()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = wx.App(False)
    frame = MyFrame(None, title='Hello World')
    app.MainLoop()
