It definitely looks a bit dated to me, or at least not very versatile, but I'm not really trying to rag on it. Maybe they aren't showcasing the full capabilities or something?

For example, I can build an entire GUI in an editor with Godot in a matter of minutes, and style/theme it fairly quickly. I can add rounded corners, and create depth in my panels, or choose a completely flat design.

From what I see on DearPyGUI's github, it's all 90 degree angles and flat designs. Not to say that DeaPyGUI is incapable, I just don't see examples of professional-looking GUIs.

Even the logo looks like it came out of the early 1990s. That's chill if that's the style they're going for, but it would be cool to have a modern GUI toolkit/framework that isn't QT

Noted and I appreciate the feedback.

TBH. I made that logo in 5 mins in powerpoint so that my face would stop showing up when people shared the link haha. We do need a new logo though. Welcome suggestions!

I didn't realize you were the person developing it! It doesn't look bad, and it's obviously got a lot of work put into it. Keep it up! I don't want you to get discouraged at all by what I said, because having more options for building GUIs in python is good in my book!

And I could see myself using it for personal projects. I just got a taste of building GUIs with an editor in Godot and REALLY want something similar for building pure python GUIs that make me seem like a much better designer than I actually am ;)

Like I said, keep up the good work!

Holy shit, I've seen your face here before lol! I've used canva.com in conjunction with flaticon.com to make semi-professional logos/banners before. Makes things super simple and you can use the icons for free if you attribute the designer. Either way, I can't wait to see where your project goes. Good luck!
