I've been using PySide6. There are some minor differences with signals but
otherwise it is the same. I think PySide is now the 'official' approach. I
think I've mentioned the pissing contest with Riverside over GPL versus
LGPL that gave rise to PySide.

One caveat: there is a line you can add that allows for more 'Pythonic'
function conventions,

from typing import Optional

so you can say

self.set_layout(layout)

rather than

self.setLayout(layout)

It might be more Pythonic and all that good stuff but it is not completely
implemented and some things still have to be camel case so I stopped
trying to use it.
