So I basically restarted the project, in Python. It felt good to be using Twisted, requests, and other familiar Python libraries again, not to mention my own existing Python code. But I was determined to still use SWT for the UI. So this app was a mongrel; I embedded the Avian JVM via a Python package called pyjnius, and used that just to bring in SWT. Yes, it was a mess. But I managed to deliver the native-feeling UI across Windows and Mac, with minimal platform-specific code.
