Best way to display logs in pyqt?

Question

I am currently working on a GUI using qt designer. I am wondering how I should go about printing strings on the GUI that acts like a logger window. I am using pyqt5.

Sounds like you'll want to use a QPlainTextEdit widget set to read-only.

Consider changing the background color to gray to give the user a hint that it is not editable. It is also up to you if you want it to be scrollable or the text selectable.

This answer can get you started subclassing QPlainTextEdit to scroll with output, save to a file, whatever.
