Python GUI with Tkinter
This course offers learning materials for students interested in developing cross-platform desktop applications with Python’s built-in Tkinter module. The course includes two sections going from basic to intermediate, each with a range of examples and exercises on building apps with buttons, data entry widgets, and menus. These exercises guide you through the development of a strategy game with a computer opponent (that doesn’t cheat!) and a simple drawing app. Examples and exercises include using layouts, frames, buttons, data entry, binding, menus (submenus and popup), canvas (and canvas shapes), scale, spinbox, radio button, check and message box.
