Editor to share with you what python Tkinter refers to. I hope you will get something after reading this article. Let's discuss it together.

Tkinter (that is, tk interface, referred to as "Tk") is essentially the Python interface encapsulation of the Tcl/Tk software package. It is the GUI toolkit officially recommended by Python and belongs to the standard library module of Python. When you have installed Python, you can use it directly without having to install it separately.

As a Python GUI tool, Tkinter has a good cross-platform and supports Windows, Linux and Mac platforms. It inherits the basic characteristics of Python syntax simplicity and code readability.

Compared with GUI toolkits of other programming languages, Tkinter has high coding efficiency and can achieve the purpose of rapid development, so it is very suitable for beginners to learn. Tkinter is developed in pure Python language. Compared with the Qt framework developed by CumberCraft +, Tkinter has its own limitations, such as performance and feature richness are not as rich as Qt, so it is only suitable for the development of some simple procedures, such as calculator interface, or a simple chat window. As shown in the following figure:

Usually, Tkinter will not be used to develop more complex desktop applications, which is determined by the characteristics of Python language. As an interpretive language and scripting language, Python does not have the advantage of developing complex desktop applications.

However, as one of the Python GUI development tools, Tkinter has the necessary and common functions of the GUI software package. For example, it provides more than ten different types of window controls, window layout managers, event handling mechanisms, etc., coupled with its high development efficiency, simple and easy to read code, Tkinter has been favored by everyone since its inception. Tkinter is a good choice when you want to create a gadget interface or a relatively simple desktop application.

Run the following command from the CMD command line to view the corresponding version of Tkinter and also display a simple window with the following command:

Python-m tkinter

The window displayed is as follows:

The IDLE (Integrated Development and Learning Environmen, integrated development and learning environment) officially provided by Python is developed entirely using Tkinter, as follows:

Whether you are learning Tkinter or GUI packages in other languages, here are some learning tips to help you find ways to learn GUI programming:

Tk provides many window controls (which will be explained in detail later). These controls vary in shape and function. In the process of writing GUI programs, you can regard these controls as pieces of "building blocks". Building building blocks of this project not only requires you to understand the shape of each building block (that is, the role of the control), but more important is to learn how to build building blocks and learn how to put these building blocks. Only in this way can we finally build a complete and beautiful "graphical interface" for these building blocks.

While introducing the usage of the control, we should pay more attention to explaining the method of "building" in order to really understand and master GUI programming.

Some concepts of GUI programming are involved in Tkinter, such as root, TopLeve, Canvas, Frame, Lable, etc. Understanding of these concepts will help you understand the logic of GUI programming, so that you will be comfortable with Tkinter programming.
