pyside6-modern-widgets

Focused Windows desktop widgets for PySide6. The package provides frameless window chrome, navigation, tabs, and lightweight Windows visual effects while retaining familiar Qt widget APIs.

ModernWindow: a lightweight, frameless QWidget window with selected QMainWindow-compatible methods and Windows 11 effects.
NavigationSidebar: a collapsible navigation sidebar.
NavigationView: a sidebar and synchronized page stack in one widget.
TabView: a WinUI-inspired tab widget.
WindowEffect: a small Windows DWM effect wrapper.

Supported environment

Supports only Windows 10 and 11, Python 3.10-3.12, PySide6 6.8.3, and the Fusion style in light mode.

Installation

pip install pyside6-modern-widgets

Example

from PySide6.QtGui import QAction
from PySide6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QLabel

from pyside6_modern_widgets import ModernWindow

app = QApplication([])
window = ModernWindow()
window.setWindowTitle("Modern window")

file_menu = window.menuBar().addMenu("&File")
exit_action = QAction("Exit", window)
exit_action.triggered.connect(window.close)
file_menu.addAction(exit_action)

window.setCentralWidget(QLabel("Hello"))
window.resize(800, 500)
window.show()
app.exec()

The native window effects target Windows. On unsupported Windows versions or when transparency is disabled, the window automatically uses a painted fallback.

Runnable window/navigation and multi-tab examples are available in the examples directory.

ModernWindow intentionally remains based on QWidget, so it is suitable for both primary and auxiliary windows. Its compatibility surface is limited to the common menuBar(), addToolBar(), statusBar(), and setCentralWidget() methods; it does not implement QMainWindow docking or state-management features.

The bundled window and navigation icons are provided by Icons8 and remain subject to the Icons8 license.
