What is "wxwidgets"

wxWidgets is a Toolkit for creating cross-platform graphical user interfaces. The library is implemented in C++, but other implementations are available for several of the most common programming languages, among them: Python, Smalltalk, Perl and Java.

wxWidgets is best described as a native utility. Rather than emulating the presentation of widgets using graphic primitives on the different supported platforms, it provides a small abstraction for native code. This makes it faster, and with a better platform-friendly look than utilities like Java Swing.
