Open source software

Enthought publishes a large portion of the code as open-source software under a BSD-style license. Enthought Canopy is a Python for scientific and analytic computing distribution and analysis environment, available for free and under a commercial license. The Enthought Tool Suite open source software projects include: * Traits: A manifest type definition library for Python that provides initialization, validation, delegation, notification, and visualization. The Traits package is the foundation of the Enthought Tool Suite, underlying almost all other packages. * TraitsUI: A UI layer that supports the visualization features of Traits. Implementations using wxWidgets and Qt are provided by the TraitsBackendWX and TraitsBackendQt projects * Pyface: toolkit-independent GUI abstraction layer, which is used to support the "visualization" features of the Traits package. * MayaVi: 2-D/3-D scientific data visualization, usable in TraitsUIs as well as an Envisage
