Camelot is a Python framework built on Qt and SQL Alchemy that ships a multi-threaded GUI with a separate model thread so queries never freeze the interface. New work includes a tab-based desktop UI, editable query-backed objects created from SQL Alchemy select statements, dynamic field attributes driven by per-row functions (used for >20 product features), actions with options and a docx template merge using Word XML and xmlint, and matplotlib axis containers recorded in the model thread and replayed in the GUI. Deployments use a custom Python distribution; teams report ~100 deployments and fast client adoption.
