NumPy vs. PyQtGraph vs. React Toolbox vs. pyglet Comparison Chart

PyQtGraph is a pure-python graphics and GUI library built on PyQt/PySide and NumPy. It is intended for use in mathematics/scientific/engineering applications. Despite being written entirely in python, the library is very fast due to its heavy leverage of NumPy for number crunching and Qt's GraphicsView framework for fast display. PyQtGraph is distributed under the MIT open-source license. Basic 2D plotting in interactive view boxes. Line and scatter plots. Data can be panned/scaled by mouse. Fast drawing for real-time data display and interaction. Displays most data types (int or float; any bit depth; RGB, RGBA, or luminance). Functions for slicing multidimensional images at arbitrary angles (great for MRI data). Rapid update for video display or real-time interaction. Image display with interactive lookup tables and level control. Mesh rendering with isosurface generation. Interactive viewports rotate/zoom with mouse. Basic 3D scenegraph for easier programming.

The cross-platform windowing and multimedia library for Python. pyglet is a powerful, yet easy-to-use Python library for developing games and other visually-rich applications on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. It supports windowing, user interface event handling, Joysticks, OpenGL graphics, loading images, and videos, and playing sounds and music. All of this with a friendly Pythonic API, that's simple to learn and doesn't get in your way. pyglet is provided under the BSD open-source license, allowing you to use it for both commercial and other open-source projects with very little restriction. No external dependencies or installation requirements. For most application and game requirements, pyglet needs nothing else besides Python, simplifying distribution and installation. This makes it easy to package your project with freezers such as PyInstaller. pyglet provides real platform native windows, allowing you to take advantage of multiple windows and multi-monitor desktops.
