MorphUI¶
MorphUI is a modern, flexible UI framework for Kivy that provides beautiful, themeable components with dynamic color management. Built on Material You's dynamic color system, it gives you a rich set of widgets with automatic theming, smooth animations, and a powerful behavior architecture — without being locked to Material Design rules.
Key Features¶
-
Dynamic Theming
Material You-inspired color system. Switch between light/dark mode or reseed colors at runtime — all widgets update automatically.
-
Rich Component Library
Buttons, chips, text fields, dialogs, dropdowns, tooltips, progress indicators, and more — all fully themed and animated.
-
Data Visualization
Optional matplotlib integration via
morphui[visualization]for charts and inline plots inside your Kivy UI. -
Smooth Animations
Built-in ripple effects, hover states, motion behaviors, and value-animated progress indicators.
-
Modular Behaviors
Mix and match fine-grained behaviors — theming, hover, ripple, elevation, sizing, composition — to compose custom widgets.
-
Cross-Platform
Runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and web via Kivy's platform abstraction.
