Welcome to the highest-rated course on Udemy on creating desktop apps using Python and Tkinter.
Whether you want to create simple utilities, complex multi-page applications, or internal tools for your business, Tkinter has what you need.
In this course, I'll teach you the techniques to make any kind of desktop application using Python and Tkinter.
A frequent question is: "Why should I learn Tkinter instead of web development"?
Desktop applications are much easier to develop than websites. This is especially true for tools and utilities.
It's easy to share Tkinter apps with others without needing them to install Python.
Python GUI apps made with Tkinter look native to the Operating System.
Tkinter apps have full access to the user's computer, which means you can store data locally, safely and securely.
So what's covered in the course?
This is the most comprehensive Tkinter course available on Udemy. We'll look at how you can:
Use Tkinter's grid and pack layout methods to structure your apps
Use Object-Oriented Programming with Tkinter, and create your own custom widgets
Split Tkinter apps into many files, so working on them becomes much easier
Add fonts and styles to Tkinter apps using the new Themed Tkinter Widgets
Add shortcuts and keybindings to your Python GUI apps
Connect to web APIs to send and receive data, stored in the cloud
Build games using Tkinter with the Canvas widget
Package and distribute Tkinter apps so your users don't need to install Python
We've also included two unique sections in this course:
A complete Python refresher. If you're new to Python (but you have some other coding experience), this section will make you productive right away.
A full reference of many Tkinter widgets so you learn how to work with them quickly. It's also easy to come back to later to review what you've learned.
