In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of creating a rough app layout using Python and the Kivy framework. This tutorial is inspired by the Challenge BTS, where we will be creating a simple app layout for a fictional K-pop group called "BTS".
To start off, make sure you have Python and Kivy installed on your computer. You can install Kivy by running the following command in your terminal:
pip install kivy
Next, create a new Python file and import the necessary modules:
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.widget import Widget
from kivy.uix.gridlayout import GridLayout
from kivy.uix.label import Label
from kivy.uix.button import Button
Now, let’s create a class for our main app:
class BTSApp(App):
def build(self):
layout = GridLayout(cols=2)
# Create labels for each member of BTS
members = ['RM', 'Jin', 'Suga', 'J-Hope', 'Jimin', 'V', 'Jungkook']
for member in members:
label = Label(text=member)
layout.add_widget(label)
# Create a button for voting
vote_button = Button(text='Vote for your favorite!')
layout.add_widget(vote_button)
return layout
In the build
method, we create a GridLayout
with 2 columns. We then iterate through the list of BTS members and create a Label
for each member. Finally, we create a Button
for voting and add it to the layout.
Now, let’s run the app by creating an instance of our BTSApp
class:
if __name__ == '__main__':
BTSApp().run()
Save your file and run it. You should see a rough app layout with labels for each BTS member and a button for voting.
This is just a simple example of how you can create a rough app layout using Python and Kivy. Feel free to customize the layout, add more widgets, and make it more interactive. Challenge yourself to create a more polished app layout for the BTS Challenge!
