Once you understand the basics of PyGTK, you can make some neat apps just by drawing upon some of the incredible APIs that are available from well-known companies such as Facebook, Twitter and Yahoo. In this video tutorial you'll learn how to work with Google's Translate API, which can translate a huge range of languages on the fly, then back up your knowledge with a simple PyGTK user interface that puts a pretty face on it all.

Code Project: build a PyGTK RSS reader

TuxRadar — Thu, 20 May 2010 09:14:06 +0000

As we saw in part one of this video series, Python makes it easy to create GTK apps. Well, it turns out that Python also makes it easy to read XML from the web, which means we can make something like an RSS reader in no time at all. In this video tutorial you'll learn how to work with XML, using RSS as an example, while also learning how GTK handles data in multi-line text fields and combo boxes.

This tutorial is dedicated to Evan, who donated at least $50 to support free software - if you want to see more video tutorials like this one, all you have to do is donate to support the Libre Graphics Meeting. Easy!
