We will not recreate the entire functionality we created in the previous chapters. For example, we will not internationalize our wxPython GUI, nor connect it to a MySQL database. We will recreate the visual aspects of the GUI and add some functionality.
Comparing different libraries gives us the choice of which toolkits to use for our own Python GUI development, and we can combine several of those toolkits in our own Python code.
Ensure you have the wxPython module installed to follow this recipe.
First, we create our Python OOP
class as we did before, using tkinter, but this time we inherit from and extend the wx.Frame
