>So, to make life interesting and things more simple, the plan is to gradually redo all three or four of these apps >in python/Dabo.

Two items:
1. I was able to get Dabo to run with wxPython 4.2.1 and python 3.11. Waiting for python 3.12.
2. I have been playing with "flet" which is a python flutter. Works well but is missing controls and you may have to write your own. But is worth the time to review.
