for basics, should check out json library python: https://docs.python.org/2/library/json.html

here's quick example:

>>> import json # grabs config.json in same directory python file >>> open("config.json", "r") e: ...     myconfig = json.load(e) >>> print myconfig {u'4': u'5', u'6': 7} # dump string representation >>> config_string = json.dumps(myconfig) >>> config_string '{"4": "5", "6": 7}' # load text >>> json.loads(config_string) {u'4': u'5', u'6': 7} # dump config file >>> open("config.json", "w") e: ...    json.dump(myconfig, e) 

this looks in current directory, , shows 2 ways of loading , dumping json configuration. should using first , last one. once loaded, json object translated python dictionary, , acts identically. likewise, python dictionary comprised of dictionaries, lists, , strings act identically json. difference integer or numerical key converted float.

as gui frameworks, recommend pyside (qt) or tkinter. qt extensive, has excellent, excellent documentation , extremely rich in features, making quite easy extend application need be. however, as c++ framework, best documentation written c++ version, however, there excellent resources pyside.
