## What it is
PyQt-SiliconUI is a Python UI component library built on PyQt5/PyQt6 that provides artistic, animated widgets, layouts, and popovers for desktop applications. It is under active development with a widget refactoring in progress and is not yet published on PyPI.

## Use cases
- build a beautiful desktop app gui in python
- styled buttons sliders and menus for pyqt
- animated widgets for a pyqt5 application

- modern-looking date picker and popover components
- custom flow and waterfall layouts in qt

## When to choose
- you want visually polished, animated widgets beyond stock Qt styles
- you are building a Python desktop app with PyQt5/PyQt6 or PySide
- you are willing to track a fast-moving library and stick to refactored widgets

## When to avoid
- you need a stable, pip-installable library for production today
- you rely on the old application templates or legacy widgets
- your project cannot accept GPL-3.0 licensing
