Which wxpython widgets should be used to create an UI that looks like Windows 10's start menu (metro style)?

Hi,

Which wxpython widgets should be used to create an UI that looks like Windows 10’s start menu (metro style)? You know, it uses flat buttons that changes appeareance when hovered on them.

Should I use some buttons or custom panels?

Best regards

Hi,

IMO you would be better of using WinJS for developing Windows 10 style application than trying to re-implement every control you need in wx.

For combining modern web technologies with wxPython applications take a look at CEF Python.

There are examples of using a chromium window as a regular wx control.
