guizero – a Python 3 library for creating simple GUIs #Python
guizero is a Python 3 library for creating simple graphical user interfaces (GUIs). It is designed to allow new learners to quickly and easily create GUIs for their programs.
Aims
The aim of guizero is to make the process of creating simple GUIs quick, accessible and understandable for new learners.
Works with standard Python Tkinter GUI library (and no need to install other libraries)
Abstracts away details new learners find difficult to understand (such as Tkinter StringVar() objects)
Accessible widget naming system to help new learners to build up a mental model
Flexible enough to be used for projects up to A-Level standard, yet accessible to primary school children
Comprehensive and accessible documentation with examples

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
