Once you master how to build user interfaces for your Python applications using wxPython, the last important step is learning how to build the application and its supporting features. This includes managing user configuration, error handling, translations, and the building of an installer. In this chapter, we will explore all of these important aspects of putting together an application for release. Each recipe will provide you with detailed steps and explanations on how to make use of the features available in the wxPython framework to build your application's infrastructure in order to make your application ready to be released to your users.

Since wxWidgets provides a wrapper around each platform’s native GUI toolkit, the applications built with wxPython will have a native look and feel wherever they are deployed.
This book will provide you with the skills to build highly functional and native looking user interfaces for Python applications on multiple operating system environments. By working through the recipes, you will gain insights into and exposure to creating applications using wxPython. With a wide range of topics covered in the book, there are recipes to get the most basic of beginners started in GUI programming as well as tips to help experienced users get more out of their applications.
