In DetailKivy is an open source Python library for the rapid development of applications that make use of innovative user interfaces, such as multitouch apps, and develops UI and UX apps in a cross-platform environment. You will start off by installing Kivy and building your interfaces. You will learn how to work the accelerometer and create custom events. Then, you will use the basics, buttons, labels, and text inputs and manipulate the widget tree. Next, you will work with manipulating instructions, create Atlas and layouts, and learn packaging for Windows and iOS. By the end of this book, you will have learned the features and tools in Kivy and will be able to create portable packages to distribute your apps on the most popular platforms.
