Docutils Users,

Have you heard of Kivy?

Perhaps the idea of using python to write cross-platform apps sounds like a
fantasy.

Think about this, SDL2 and Cython. Permissively licensed.

Have some power.

Where does reStructuredText come in?

http://kivy.org/docs/api-kivy.uix.rst.html

That's right folks. You can render reStructuredText beautifully on mobile
apps!

Why not try the RST_Editor example, and get a live preview of your
documents? https://github.com/kivy/kivy/tree/master/examples/RST_Editor

In the attached screenshot, I borrow from the kitchen sink showcase, and
change the RstEditor example to use CodeInput instead of TextInput.
CodeInput gives you a fixed width font and pygments highlighting (which of
course highlights reST).

Example for Kivy 1.9.0: https://github.com/tony/kivysample/

Example for Kivy 1.9.1dev (from source as of August 5, 2015):
