# Showcase

> A gallery of Python desktop apps made with Pyzed: utilities, forms, games, GPU shaders and effects, and dashboards, each with an explanation, the full code and a command to run it.

Everything on these pages is a real program in the
[`examples`](https://github.com/albakore/pyzed/tree/main/examples) folder of the repository, drawn by Pyzed with
the GPU. Click a card to see how it is made, read the full code and run it. Want to build one yourself, step by
step? The [Tutorials](https://albakore.github.io/pyzed/tutorials/) take you there.

**Run any of them:**

Download or clone the [repository](https://github.com/albakore/pyzed), open a terminal in its folder and run the
file. Every page has a block like this one, with the commands for uv, pip and plain Python on Windows, macOS and
Linux:

## Apps and utilities

Small, complete programs: viewers, timers, live data, an AI chat and a code editor workspace.
[See them all](https://albakore.github.io/pyzed/showcase/apps/).

## Forms

Sign-in, sign-up, settings and wizards, drawn in Pyzed Design or written in code. [See them
all](https://albakore.github.io/pyzed/showcase/forms/).

## Games

Real-time 2D games with a frame loop, held keys, particles and a HUD made of regular widgets. [How games
work](https://albakore.github.io/pyzed/games/).

## Shaders and effects

GPU shaders made of nodes, and glass, bloom, blur and animations on any widget. [See them
all](https://albakore.github.io/pyzed/showcase/shaders/).

## Dashboards and data

Admin panels, tables, boards and media apps. [See them all](https://albakore.github.io/pyzed/showcase/dashboards/).

**About this section:**

The Showcase grows with every release. All the programs here are drawn off-screen by the test suite, so they run
with the current version of Pyzed; short recordings of the ones that move are being added. Made something with
Pyzed you would like to show? Tell us on [GitHub](https://github.com/albakore/pyzed).
