Create GUI App with Tkinter and SQLite - Step by Step Python Tutorial for Beginners

[@justiccoolman1816]

You are very sympathic and you have a talent for clear explanations,, but i think it would be better to teach sql from the beginning like it is meant to be. Sql is an relational database what means you would structure that case differently: Only two table are needed: The first table (name: Recipies) holds an id and name (recipiename) column. The second table (name Ingridients) holds following columns: another id, Recipies_Fk (foreign key, pointer to the id column of the first tabel) and then all the ingridient fields. Thats it. Now the table name of your sql statements are static. But you need now more sql statments: "Select * from Recipies" select a random line in the pyhton code and pass the id to the follwoing statement "Select * from Ingriedients where Recipies_Fk = ;". You also gain there big advantage which is that you are only loading the neccessary ingridients.

Thank you so much for the AWESOME tip Justic!! 🤩🤩🤩 I must admit - I didn't even think of this type of database architecture! At first, my thought was to store each recipe as a separate record on the same table - but the different number of ingredients was quite the deal breaker 😅 Instead of looking at ingredients and recipe names as different entities altogether - I combined them into one 🙃 Your suggested architecture is a million times better than what I came up with, so thank you so much for sharing it!! 😃😃😃

[@japhethjay4880]

Yeah she definitely has to do more with the database design but your tutorials saw amazing. Keep up

[@SOUFTVOFFICIEL]

Thank you for the video ... how can i convert Tkinter desktop App to Web App

[@PythonSimplified]

​@@japhethjay4880 an updated version of the app is now available (based on a relational database of course 😉): github.com/MariyaSha/RandomRecipePicker/tree/main/relationalDB_complete_project_WINDOWS Currently working on a tutorial that converts it into a full-blown software (suitable for all operating systems with Inno Setup) 💪💪💪

[@PythonSimplified]

Folks, an updated relational database version of the app is now available: github.com/MariyaSha/RandomRecipePicker/tree/main/relationalDB_complete_project_WINDOWS Will see you soon in a brand new tutorial that converts it into a full blown software suitable for all operating systems (auto-py-2-exe + Inno Setup) 😁😁😁

[@bluesparrow9644]

This lady is a fantastic teacher and dedicated to her work. At one point she is savagely attacked by what appears to be wild cats and she carries on with the class....

[@astropgn]

Exactly what I wanted! The doc said I need to log my blood pressure daily and I want to create a simple gui that I can input the values and a button to update a database, and also show a plot for the values and stuff. This video will be very useful!

[@robynrox]

Thank you so much! Not only did you effectively demonstrate the process, you made it fun!

[@cryptombt5880]

You’re such a fantastic teacher. You make it sooooo easy to understand. You should make a full python course. I’d love that

[@doodo7381]

When I want to make a gui tkinter project and also with SQLite3 the first youtube channel your channel will the first recommended channel in my mind

[@kapibara2440]

It was an indeed worthy tutorial. 45 minutes spent with a brilliant teacher. Thank you ❤ Greetings from Poland :)

[@christopherjones2388]

Hi Mariya. I just finished the recipe picker project. I learned a lot. It is great to see how different programmers approach coding. I hope you produce more videos. Take care.

[@lionatticus9743]

After having almost finished the video, I’m back again to say, amazing and thank you!

[@nemeziz_prime]

Tkinter GUI + Database = Exactly what I was looking for !!! Thank you ❤️

[@ingframin]

This is the best tutorial on GUIs I have ever seen. Good job!

[@danielx40]

Finally, someone talks like a real person, instead of with those "programmer voice" like in most online tutorials.

[@lionatticus9743]

Very straightforward and easy to understand. You might say… _Python Simplified_ . Thank you!

[@dubzillagk6802]

Love your videos!! fixing to start a tkinter project that uses sqlite this is a great intro. At first I thought you were saying costume fonts. I had to watch till the end to learn what they were lol.

[@Selbstzensur]

Very happy to see a woman explaining python stuff, thank you.

[@freedtmg16]

I know theirs a lot more work that goes into these videos to make them so smooth, but damn are they smooth. Thanks for another great tutorial!

[@VanguardOnline2011]

I got 9 minutes in, and every minute was clear, practical, and perfectly explained. Subscribed! I will continue watching on weekend when I have more time. You have an excellent teaching style.

[@PythonSimplified]

Thank you so much for the lovely comment Ryan! 😃 I hope you like the rest of it too 😉 (once you're back, please checkout the pinned comment up top suggesting how to improve the structure of my database, I really wish I figured it out on my own hahaha 😅)

[@MegaJohn144]

This was a great presentation. The way you develop an app is the way most programmers think, I believe. At least it's the way I think. I have been away from Python for a couple of years, so this was a great review for me. I'm writing an app that uses SQLite 3 to query a database with a table of 40,000 lines. The queries are complex, but there is only one table. I usually use PySimpleGui, but there are some widgets that I need that PySimpleGui doesn't have -- like a tree control with checkboxes.

[@yeetdeets]

At 14:49 you could also just remove the parenthesis on the function. When you assign the function with parenthesis you assign the functions return value, which in this case is None as it doesn't return anything, and the function is executed at assignment. Lambda is mostly useful when you need a non-default sorting key, or when you are only changing one argument. Say for example, you inject a function into a class. You have a function triangle_area(bottom_side: float, angles: Tuple[float, float, float) -> float. But in your class the angles are always 60 degrees and it only takes a function triangle_area(bottom_side:float) -> float, so instead of making a brand new function, you pass it a lambda function Lambda x: triangle_area(x, (60,60,60)).

[@robertcarroll5036]

Wow Maria! That was beautifully done. Nice and clear, explained well and easy to follow. I will be watching a lot more of your videos. Thanks!!

[@PythonSimplified]

Thank you so much Robert! Glad you liked it! 😃

[@ibisboutto5247]

What a lovely girl! and a great teacher! I wish I had a teacher like this 10 years ago. Clear explanations! Charming! and reads your mind. When you say: why are you..... She says: and if you are thinking about this: here is the answer hahahaha. amazing! Keep Rocking!

[@paulmoss4199]

Thank you for this, I followed it all the way through, typing in the code myself and learnt loads. This is just the right kind of pace for me 👍

[@PythonSimplified]

Fantastic!!! 🤩🤩🤩You're absolutely welcome, Paul!! BTW, you can now convert this app into a real program that anyone can download and install on their computer! :) Checkout my recent tutorial from last week (designed specifically for the Random Recipe Picker app ;)): ⭐ Convert GUI App to Real Program - Python to exe to setup wizard kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmTXhH-XqdJ6rLc

This is my first time to watch a video from your channel. And i was amazed by your way of explaining things. I am eager to see your other videos. Keep gooing, really really amazing..

[@JorgeEscobarMX]

This is a good tutorial, it explains how to create a window and render a button attached to a function. Database connection is great and simple. There is a lot of hacky code, midway to the end. This tutorial is a mouthful, but now I'm interested on learning Tkinter properly on Udemy. Seems like Tkinter is what Java tried to do back in the 2000's to allow Java developers to make graphical user interfaces using Java.

[@yarongolan3560]

Never thought that creating a Tkinter app could be that easy. your tutorial is great. Thank you

[@PythonSimplified]

Thank you so much Yaron! 😃 שמחה לשמוע שאהבת! ד"ש מוונקובר! 😉

[@alangregoric3640]

Excelent tutorial. Keep up the good work. I really enjoyed it and it also got me thinking about it so I have made some additions. I noted that title always start with " " due to space addition while splitting words so I removed that extra space. Second thing I noted is some recipes have quite long titles so I made adjustment to break it down and insert " " after 3 words. This is what I added in "load_frame2" right after call of "pre_process" function: title = title[1:] if title.count(" ")>3: split_title = "" title_words = title.split(" ") i = 1 for w in title_words: split_title += w + " " if i % 3 == 0: split_title = split_title[:-1] split_title += " " i +=1 title = split_title[:-1]

[@sunkamraj4684]

I'm simultaneously thrilled and furious to learn how easy it is to center the app on the screen with just that root.eval("tk::PlaceWindow . center") method. I've gone to extensive lengths before for worse-looking behavior. This is an incredible tutorial and I learned a lot, thank you for this

Thank you for this hudge complet and easy TkInter tuto. Very clear. Maybe my libs are a "little" to old, but : - from PIL import ImageTk raised a import exception. So, i use logo_img = tk.PhotoImage(file="assets/RRecipe_logo.png") and it works. - SQL command "SELECT * FROM sqlite_schema WHERE type='table';" didn't work, So, i use "SELECT * FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table';" If it could be usefull to someone ... Put root.eval("tk::PlaceWindow . center") just after load_frame1() seems to be nice too ;)

Hello, I am looking to build an app (I have basic knowledge of python), the app will show a search bar with drop down list, once I clicked it will display some columns with pre-entered values. The data base will be maintained in a csv file. Can you please recommend the plug in I will need to execute the above project? Thank you in advance.

[@2JSinc]

Hi Mariya, I'm new to python and to your channel, just watched a few of your videos, and I must say you are one the few channels teaching python that is easy to understand and follow, thank you. Would it be possible for you to create a tutorial about an app that I can use a base app that I can build upon? The app that I would like to build is an app for recording data/information that I will get from a scanned pdf document, so the app would have two panes/grids one for encoding the Data Record and One for viewing the Pdf File, I need to somehow mark the pdf file if it was encoded already and save the data to a database or excel or csv file, can you demonstrate how to accomplish this, maybe a simple contact information app that will get the info from a scanned pdf file of a contact form just to demo the concept. Thanks in advance...
