Why Kivy School?

  • We'll teach you EVERYTHING from your first "Hello world!" app to packaging for PC and mobile.
  • All of our tutorials will come with packaging instructions so not only do you have a working app, but you will have something to show for your progress and distribute to your friends.
  • We'll explain everything step by step and in detail, even if you know nothing about computers. If you already know some steps, then the "easy" steps are already set for you to skim over!

What is Kivy? 🥝

Kivy is a Python framework, i.e., a set of tools that allows you to build apps using Python. It is a cross-platform framework, which means that you can build apps for Android, iOS, Linux, Windows, and macOS using the same code. It is also a free and open-source framework, which means that you can use it for free and you can also contribute to the project.

Why should I learn Kivy?

  • It works everywhere 📱🖥️🤖! Android, iOS, Linux, Windows, macOS and virtual machines with VirtualBox! (You can run Kivy apps on your Raspberry Pi, Tablet or even on your toaster!)
  • You don't need to learn HTML, CSS, or JavaScript to build your app! React/React-native, Dart/Flutter, and other frameworks are great, but they are not for everyone. Kivy is a great alternative for people who want to build apps for mobile and desktop, but don't want to learn a new language. Make everything with Python 🐍!
  • Responsiveness: it does not matter the screen size, Kivy will make your app fit the size you need!
  • Simple or complex: you can build replicas of famous apps, or you can even build a game with 3D graphics!
  • Are you ready? Let's start!
