Migrating to Python

I’m thinking of moving a part of my pet project to Python. I was hoping to learn Python before the year ends. Maybe I could speed it up by going directly to application and browsing through manuals. I’ll use Tkinter instead of wxPython. Here’s what I’m planning to do:

  • A desktop client app
  • Should work with my current XHR pages
  • Safely authenticate
  • Release binary versions for Windows
  • Handle distribution (maybe some sort of automatic update notification thing?)

Yes, I’ll be leaving AJAX/XHR mainly because I’m having a hard time debugging several parts. Specially that Firefox (or my extensions) becomes sluggish and unresponsive. Also, I find Javascript a bit limiting.

In short, I’m chickening out on Javascript. By the way, is it just me that accidentally pronounces Tkinter like it was Tay-kinter?
