-Description: python IDE for scientists (Python 2)

- ready-to-use pure-Python widgets: source code editor with syntax

+Description: OpenGL-based interactive visualization library (Python 2)
+ Vispy is an OpenGL-based interactive visualization library in
+ Python. Its goal is to make it easy to create beautiful and fast
+ dynamic visualizations. For example, scientific plotting of tens of
+ millions of points, interacting with complex polygonial models, and
+ (dynamic) volume rendering. All thanks to the graphics card’s
+ hardware acceleration.
+ .
+ Vispy will eventually offer graphical APIs at multiple levels,
+ including a matplotlib-like scientific plotting library. Currently,
+ only the lowest-level API is implemented: it brings an easy-to-use
+ Pythonic object-oriented interface to OpenGL. This layer requires you
+ to have basic knowledge of modern OpenGL (notably the OpenGL shading
+ language, GLSL).
+ .
+ We are currently working on higher level layers. They will hide most
+ OpenGL concepts and let you create beautiful visualizations in a few
+ lines of code. Stay tuned!
  .
  This is the Python 2 version of the package.
