I started learning a bit of python and would now like to toy around a bit with gui-building. Qt seems to be a good choice because of its cross-platformishness.
Now there seem to be two bindings available: PyQt by Riverbank Computing and PySide, originally developed by Nokia.
So which one should I choose? All I can find are two year old feature comparisons, but what differences are there nowadays?
Which one is easier to use, has more/better documentation? Are both still in active development?
Licensing isn't of much concern to me since I don't intend to write commercial applications.
There is also the licensing difference.  PySide is LGPL while PyQt is GPL.  This could make a difference if you don't wish to make your project opensource. Although PyQt always has the propriety version available for a fairly reasonable price.
I tend to find the PySide documentation more intuitive.  The API, in my opinion is slightly more Pythonic and the rate of bug fixes is quite impressive at the moment.
PyQt has the advantage of Python 3 support and incumbency.  There is a lot more 3rd party documentation/tutorials for it.
PyQt or PySide - which one to use
