CREATE Your First MODERN App In Python Tutorial 2023 (Increment Counter)

Today we will be creating our very first modern application in Python using Custom Tkinter, which is essentially an add-on for the default Tkinter, but it makes everything look very modern by default!

Great video! Thanks for explaining this module!

[@hilkiahlavinier]

Nice video!!! Would you please consider doing a follow up comparing the various python GUI libraries (so that we can see the difference in the interface as well as the required code)

[@Indently]

Good suggestion, thank you!

[@gedavaa1]

Good video, thank you!

[@5hymon]

I already known tkinter. Now i’m going to use customtkinter thx to u.

[@molizanee]

Great code bro, a hug from Brazil🤝

[@manassart]

good job appreciated

[@officialacescottie]

i made rapidTk (pypi and github) its a way of making Tkinter code but much faster wirghting and it comes with some more advanced objects that already have expected stuff on them. e.g. Entry widgets already have a rightclick menu for cut, copy and paste. Treeviews already have hover highlighting and full support for bg and fg. It supports language.xml and language references using dot notation (github only currently) _l = localization("en_gb") _l.set_local("en_gb") print(_l.my_app.hello) -> "Hello World!" and more: forms, self validation widgets with regex, autocomplete Entry, moveable windows (Canvases) and a custome TimePicker like the ones you see on html forms.

Many people like Tkinter ;) You have a problem with importing a modules. My examples, applications, demos work. Yours unfortunately do not ;/.

[@YigalBZ]

Nice video and very practical. How can this app be distributed to Windows machines that have no Python installed? To Android? Linux?

[@DrugabrieL]

Could you show us how to add an option that allows user input on how much the increment would be?

[@DanielsSilis-rg9ju]

I have made a system using customtkinter however I did not use "class app" or defining "__init__" I just want to ask what is the benefit of using these two commands and what am I missing if I do not use them.

[@SkyFly19853]

Is it possible to create a modern GUI with Pyqt5 for Pygame?

[@letshev]

Could you please make similar video about pyqt?

[@dipeshsamrawat7957]

Hey brother! Could you please upload a complete course of 'Custom Tkinter'? We shall help you. Please respond. Thank you.

[@WinfriedKastner]

Hello Federico. Thank you for your interesting video. But what I don't understand in general is ... for learning, the output in the console is certainly the easiest way to learn Python or to quickly test something. But actually every modern programming language has a GUI on board by default with which you can build your own GUIs by drag 'n' drop without much effort and without having to delve into details too much. Actually, in our times, something like this should also be available by default in standard Python besides the partly old fashioned TKinter. This also avoids developers having to learn and use x different GUIs, which also makes maintenance more difficult at some point. What do you think about this?

[@maciejzettt]

You would be surprised how few languages have built-in GUI functionality. It's probably the most OS-dependent content you can get so it wouldn't be a good idea to incorporate GUI libraries in the built-ins.

[@linuxeducation4058]

My project is already a year old and I am the only person creating it. I have simple widget creation tools: WidgetCreator and a multicolor tool: ColorPaletteTool. Flutter was created seven years ago, it has many programmers and widgets also have to be programmed manually. Why? I don't know ;)

[@--Valek--]

Possibly a vid showing this with a pygame window

[@annujha360]

Can we convert this gui application into an apk file?

[@databeliever]

As always well explained! Thanks. Although I still like Flet better. I did a quick similar code using Flet UI: import flet as ft def main(page: ft.Page): page.title = "Increment Counter" page.window_width = 270 page.window_height = 240 page.window_resizable = False page.horizontal_alignment = ft.CrossAxisAlignment.CENTER page.vertical_alignment = ft.MainAxisAlignment.CENTER def increment(e): label.value = str(int(label.value) + 1) if int(label.value) > 0: btn_reset.opacity = 1 page.update() def reset(e): label.value = "0" btn_reset.opacity = 0 page.update() label = ft.Text( value="0", text_align=ft.TextAlign.CENTER, width=150, font_family="Helvetic bold", size=26) btn_increment = ft.ElevatedButton( text="Increment", on_click=increment, width=150, icon="plus_one", icon_color="green400" ) btn_reset = ft.ElevatedButton( text="Reset", on_click=reset, width=150, icon="refresh", icon_color="red800", opacity=0 ) page.add( ft.Column( controls=[ label, btn_increment, btn_reset ], width=150) ) ft.app(target=main)

[@Indently]

I will try using flet as well, there are so many options out there! Thanks for sharing :)

[@magachipula9233]

It's good but I'm failing to run it. It's complaining about the line : gui = App(master=app) it is saying 'TypeError: App() takes no arguments'

[@kiryonnakira7566]

It's not just an empty window. It has the 3 basic buttons (reduce, minimize/maximize, and close) and they are already bound to their natural functions. When I was in my 1st year of Uni I had to use AWT in java and it's a pain in the neck to create your basic window. With Tkinter, it takes literally 3 lines of code to make a working basic window. Also, I don't get why you used a try-catch here. I feel like it's unneeded as there shouldn't be an error. To my understanding, you should only use try-catches when manipulating external files.

[@LauPaSat-pl]

You also use try-catch, if you throw an exception, to mark something (like end of iterator in a for loop)

[@kullimoney365]

i think its fine but if u really want a nice gui, then i go with godot its easy fast nd simple

[@Indently]

I'll give it a go, thanks :)

[@parabolaaa]

hey! my terminal tells me that there is no module named tkinter. when i tried installing it using pip, it told me it could not find any matching distribution for tkinter

[@Indently]

tkinter is installed by default

[@parabolaaa]

@@Indently i get this error: File "/home/parabola/ctk.py", line 1, in import customtkinter as ctk File "/home/parabola/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/customtkinter/__init__.py", line 5, in from tkinter import Variable, StringVar, IntVar, DoubleVar, BooleanVar ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tkinter'

[@flakeybran1447]

Could you make a video about Pyscript?

[@aryankothari4634]

Tkinter still VERY annoying to work with. Flet is a new-ish project that uses Flutter as a backend.

[@Indently]

I will check it out!

[@thatsunpossible312]

Flet doesn’t allow interactive plots so it is limited when doing data apps. I keep winding up back at Qt or Tkinter for desktop apps.

[@codetest1]

c what I have

[@SACHINKUMAR-px8kq]

Please Give me Code Script Sir on Github

[@Naumkovich]

Лол, и в чем отличие от норм ткинтера?

[@lek8630]

описание хоть бы прочитал, кастомный ткинтер это просто аддон которые делает интерфейс окна сразу более современным

[@reimus16]

Элементы расположить проще чем в ткинтере

[@Naumkovich]

@@reimus16 ну я бы не сказал, куда легче в ориг ткинтере

[@CHA9LIPO]

what is the best way to work with counters in python without using database or "global" & Thank you.
