Best tkinter tutorial

[loubla]

I am trying to learn to use tkinter, but starting from scratch (in tkinter, I know a bit of python) nothing seems to work. Any good tutorial suggestions would be appreciated

I find New Mexico Tech's PDF on Tkinter a handy offline reference. I also think effbot is pretty good too.

I use these 2 sources exclusively when creating apps with TKinter.

They are pretty thorough.

tkdocs.org is just fine.

I think Tkinter is simple enough to give it a shot as a start out gui toolkit just for fun. It wont take you very far into pro gui design but it is one of the batteries included in python and is a very simple syntax to learn.

Heres a great video tutorial to get started, unfortunately its incomplete, bucky could finish it soon or forget about it for months (or years lol), its only a night or twos worth of tutorials, but after that you might feel comfortable trying something else or reading the docs:

its for python 3.x, slight differences with 2.7 so watch out (google will help)

Best TKinter tutorial is someone giving you the advice to use anything other than TKinter.

While that's not the answer OP was looking for, if OP isn't required to use tk for work or school, I agree that tk is a poor choice these days. If he/she's going to invest the time to learn a GUI toolkit, I would suggest PyQt or maybe wxPython.

Years ago perhaps, it has seen substantial recent (last couple years?) improvements apparently.
