Description

Tkinter is widely used to build GUIs in Python due to its simplicity. In this book, you’ll discover Tkinter’s strengths and overcome its challenges as you learn to develop fully featured GUI applications. Python GUI Programming with Tkinter, Second Edition, will not only provide you with a working knowledge of the Tkinter GUI library, but also a valuable set of skills that will enable you to plan, implement, and maintain larger applications. You’ll build a full-blown data entry application from scratch, learning how to grow and improve your code in response to continually changing user and business needs. You’ll develop a practical understanding of tools and techniques used to manage this evolving codebase and go beyond the default Tkinter widget capabilities. You’ll implement version control and unit testing, separation of concerns through the MVC design pattern, and object-oriented programming to organize your code more cleanly. You’ll also gain experience with technologies often used in workplace applications, such as SQL databases, network services, and data visualization libraries. Finally, you’ll package your application for wider distribution and tackle the challenge of maintaining cross-platform compatibility.

What you will learn

Excellent product. Moves at an easy pace making it easy to learn. There are a good selection of diagrams to aid understanding of the topic.

As a user of Python for data science this book was interesting from the point of view of learning how to use Python to create GUI applications.The author (Alan Moore) does a good job in presenting a lot! (600+ pages) of content. Across 16 chapters, starting with an introduction in which installation, IDLE, and the ubiquitous "Hello World" is implemented, the book takes the reader through basic form controls, menus, styles and themes, and a very useful chapter on packaging and deployment (handily for both Mac and Windows). This ordering of chapters is spot on as it gradually builds the readers knowledge. There is also a useful short summary at the end of each chapter, but no “test your knowledge” questions. The book is written in a clear style so it is easy to follow. At first glance, some chapters do feel ever so slightly out of place (e.g. “Improving Data Storage with SQL”, “Connecting to the Cloud”) but dig deeper and you see that they are actually quite usefulFor anyone wanting to learn how to develop GUIs using Python, this book is a must.

so far this is a very good book to start learning Tkinter

Vorweg: es wird vermutlich etwas hart, wenn man gar keine Programmierersprache vorher kannte. Ich konnte bereits eine objektorientierte Sprache und fand mich schnell wieder.Das Buch ist super. Die Hinweisboxen treffen genau die Fragen und Probleme die ich beim Durchlesen des Kapitels hatte. Das Niveau zieht am Anfang gut an und bleibt auf einem gesunden level während alles Neue vermittelt wird.Habe es nur zu einem Drittel durch aber bin bisher begeistert.
