You’ll learn how to extract data from the entry boxes. You’ll learn how to change color, size orientation of most of Tkinter’s widgets. You’ll learn how to add functionality to the buttons. You’ll be capable of manipulating text files by writing, reading, appending and creating them. Out of all the GUI methods in Python, Tkinter is the most commonly used method. Python with Tkinter is the fastest and easiest way to create GUI applications. Tkinter widgets can be used to construct buttons, menus, data fields, etc. in a Python application. Once created, these graphical elements can be associated with or interact with features, functionality, methods, data or even other widgets.
