When I started with wxPython I found Boa useful simply to get an idea
of what I was supposed to write in the first place. Once I had "got
it", I switched to hand coding in SciTE/Vim/Emacs (insert favourite
editor), though occasionally I do use wxGlade now and then when I am
having problems with the sizer boxes..!

As for Tkinter: hand coding all the way.
