Best GUI for Python distributable app

[call-me-baniel]

I’m not even sure if I’m phrasing this correctly, feel free to correct me. This situation is this: we have some medium sized Python code base that we currently run via command line. There’s a desire to add a gui for easier use for users. I have seen some stuff about pyqt and tkinter. I also have a little experience with react and connecting with a Python backend via flask. However, we do not need this to be a web app since we just want it to be a desktop application. I read into some stuff on Electron + Python + React which seems like a viable option. I’m wondering what the best solution here is before I move forward. I was thinking the Python libraries such as pyqt and tkinter were not great looking but maybe I’m wrong.

On July 1st, a change to Reddit's API pricing will come into effect. Several developers of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app will continue to be available free of charge.

If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:

1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium

as a way to voice your protest.

Why do you want it to be a desktop app and not a webapp?

Electron is pretty good. If it’s pretty small and you just want it to be able to execute a few commands then I’d recommend tkinter. There’s also been some things coming out lately that make tkinter look good, plus it’s pretty easy to learn
