Kv Design Language
------------------
.. container:: title
Designing with the kv language.

Kivy provides a design language specifically geared towards ease of GUI Design,
which makes it easier to separate interface design and logic from internal design and
logic. For example:
2012-04-04 10:04:52 +00:00
.. image:: ../images/gs-lang.png
:align: center
:height: 229px
2012-04-04 10:04:52 +00:00
In the above code :
.. code-block:: kv
<LoginScreen>: # every class in your app can be represented by a rule like this in the kv file
GridLayout: # this is how you add your widget/layout to the parent (note the indentation).
rows: 2 # this how you set each property of your widget/layout

That's it, that's how simple it is to design your GUI in the kv language. To get a
more in-depth understanding look at :doc:`/guide/kvlang`
