It is impossible to sum up the functionality of wxWidgets in a few paragraphs, but
here are some of the benefits:
\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
\item Low cost (free, in fact!)
\item You get the source.
\item Available on a variety of popular platforms.
\item Works with almost all popular C++ compilers and Python.
\item Over 70 example programs.
\item Over 1000 pages of printable and on-line documentation.
\item Simple-to-use, object-oriented API.
\item Flexible event system.
\item Graphics calls include lines, rounded rectangles, splines, polylines, etc.
\item Constraint-based and sizer-based layouts.
\item Print/preview and document/view architectures.
\item Toolbar, notebook, tree control, advanced list control classes.
\item PostScript generation under Unix, normal MS Windows printing on the PC.
\item MDI (Multiple Document Interface) support.
\item Can be used to create DLLs under Windows, dynamic libraries on Unix.
\item Common dialogs for file browsing, printing, colour selection, etc.
\item Under MS Windows, support for creating metafiles and copying
them to the clipboard.
\item An API for invoking help from applications.
\item Ready-to-use HTML window (supporting a subset of HTML).
\item Network support via a family of socket and protocol classes.
\item Support for platform independent image processing.
\item Built-in support for many file formats (BMP, PNG, JPEG, GIF, XPM, PNM, PCX).
\item Includes Tex2RTF, to allow you to produce your own documentation
in Windows Help, HTML and Word RTF formats.

Under all platforms it's recommended to have large amounts of free hard disk
space. The exact amount needed depends on the port, compiler and build
configurations but to give an example, a debug build of the library may take up
to 500MB.
