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  Produce well-organized, functional, and responsive GUI applications Extend the functionality of existing widgets using classes and OOP Plan wisely for the expansion of your app using MVC and version control Make sure your app works as intended through widget validation and unit testing Use tools and processes to analyze and respond to user requests Become familiar with technologies used in workplace applications, including SQL, HTTP, Matplotlib, threading, and CSV Use PostgreSQL authentication to ensure data security for your application  Who this book is forThis book is for programmers who understand the syntax of Python, but do not yet have the skills, techniques, and knowledge to design and implement a complete software application. A fair grasp of basic Python syntax is required.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50765002178833,"sku":"CIN1801815925G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51055673999633,"sku":"NIN9781801815925","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52542706843921,"sku":"NLS9781801815925","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52952189305105,"sku":"GOR014665149","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1801815925.jpg?v=1750929847"},{"product_id":"python-gui-programming-a-complete-reference-guide-book-alan-d-moore-9781838988470","title":"Python GUI Programming - A Complete Reference Guide","description":"Explore Python’s GUI frameworks and create visually stunning and feature-rich applications  Key Features  Integrate stunning data visualizations using Tkinter Canvas and Matplotlib Understand the basics of 2D and 3D animation in GUI applications Explore PyQt’s powerful features to easily design and customize your GUI applications  Book DescriptionA responsive graphical user interface (GUI) helps you interact with your application, improves user experience, and enhances the efficiency of your applications. With Python, you’ll have access to elaborate GUI frameworks that you can use to build interactive GUIs that stand apart from the rest.  This Learning Path begins by introducing you to Tkinter and PyQt, before guiding you through the application development process. As you expand your GUI by adding more widgets, you'll work with networks, databases, and graphical libraries that enhance its functionality. You'll also learn how to connect to external databases and network resources, test your code, and maximize performance using asynchronous programming. In later chapters, you'll understand how to use the cross-platform features of Tkinter and Qt5 to maintain compatibility across platforms. You’ll be able to mimic the platform-native look and feel, and build executables for deployment across popular computing platforms.  By the end of this Learning Path, you'll have the skills and confidence to design and build high-end GUI applications that can solve real-world problems.
