Modern Tkinter GUIs with Themes – Modern Python GUI
When it comes to creating modern and visually appealing graphical user interfaces (GUIs) in Python, Tkinter is a popular choice among developers. With the release of Tkinter 8.6, developers now have the ability to create modern Tkinter GUIs with themes, allowing for more customization and a sleeker look and feel.
Themes in Tkinter
Themes in Tkinter allow developers to easily change the appearance of their GUIs by applying pre-defined styles and color schemes. This gives developers the flexibility to create GUIs that fit their specific design requirements, whether it’s a dark mode theme, a material design theme, or a custom theme tailored to their application.
How to Use Themes in Tkinter
Using themes in Tkinter is straightforward and requires just a few lines of code. First, developers can select a theme from the available options, such as ‘clam’, ‘alt’, ‘default’, ‘classic’, and ‘vista’, among others. Then, they can apply the theme to their widgets by using the ttk.Style()
class and the ttk.Style().theme_use()
method.
Creating a Modern Python GUI with Tkinter Themes
With the ability to apply themes to Tkinter GUIs, developers can create modern and visually appealing applications with ease. Whether it’s a business software, a data visualization tool, or a gaming application, Tkinter with themes offers a wide range of possibilities for designing stunning user interfaces.
Furthermore, Tkinter with themes is compatible with various operating systems and supports high-DPI displays, ensuring that the GUI looks crisp and professional on all devices.
Conclusion
Modern Tkinter GUIs with themes open up a world of possibilities for Python developers who want to create sleek and visually appealing applications. With the ability to customize the look and feel of their GUIs, developers can create modern, professional, and user-friendly applications that meet the needs of their users.
By leveraging the power of Tkinter themes, Python developers can elevate the user experience of their applications and make a lasting impression on their audience.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Please do one of your beginner/intermediate-friendly videos on how to install and use Sun Valley. That would be very helpful. Thanks.
Calm with custom setting is my favs

this girl needs more views and more subs 100%
Yes please build a accounting app with one of them
everyone who says that tkinter looks outdated likely doesn't know much about tkinter. With the things tkinter supplies you can easily make anything yourself. You don't have to use the already made button function to make a button. instead you can use shapes and other things to make the thing you want then add a simple check to see if that shape has been clicked and there is your new and fresh button completely with your style. Yes its harder, but you don't have to use other librarys.
Great channel and well explained, why it 's not updated?
thanks!
I didn’t even know tkinter could have themes. Learn something every day. I been using custom tkinter all this time for ‘modern looking ui’ and it has its limitations as it doesn’t have all the controls that tkinter has
Do you know CUSTOM TKINTER ? It´s a great modern version of tkinter!
shokran ya Hala habibti
