Add to SafariwxWidgets Is a mature GUI toolkit that uses each platform's native API, so provides a native look and feel from one codebase. This makes it more thoroughly cross-platform than some other libraries.
Although wxWidgets is written in C++, you can use it with a variety of languages including Python, Perl, and C#. It has bindings to many languages (more than are listed on the homepage - check your language's package libraries for a "wx" prefix).
wxFormBuilder can be used for visual form design, other designers are available.
