What do I need to know in order to write a web application in python?

[Santoso Wijaya]

GUI application is a whole other matter entirely. For that, you might want
to look into cross-platform GUI toolkits with Python bindings. E.g., PyQT
[1], wxPython [2], TkInter [3], etc. Python, after all, is just a
cross-platform language. To do all those user-friendly bells and whistles,
you'd need to use the appropriate framework(s) that Python can work with.
