  Description     : a desktop-inspired python UI toolkit for building
web applications

  RCTK (Remote Control Toolkit) is a (Python based) desktop-like UI
  toolkit providing standard widgets such as buttons, labels, frames
  and layout managers. However, instead of using traditional libraries
  such as gtk, wxWidgets, Cocoa for drawing the UI controls it uses a
  web browser as a "remote display" for rendering the interface.
  .
  This allows you to write applications using a "tradtional"
  desktop-like UI approach: statefull applications, with mainloop,
  native events, integration with existing modules, and so on, in
  standard Python. Instead of running it on your local desktop you can
  access it remotely through a web browser. Unlike "traditional" web
  frameworks, there's no distinct separation between client and
  server. You don't need to code any HTML, CSS or Javascript to build
  feature-rich applications using RCTK.
