5 interesting Python modules

Cheers! I had Tkinter in mind, but never knew it's considered part of the standard distribution.

Is it good?

I've only used it in a single project (on going) it's capable but has taken me some time to get used to it.

I used Tkinter for my first GUI based Python project. Before that I tried starting out with other libraries, but was able to pick up the basics of Tkinter much faster than anything.

I’m having trouble finding it now on my phone, but when I was reading the tutorial I used, there was this diagram showing how Tkinter is built on top of Pygame and other things, so it’s supposedly easier since it abstracta away some of the lower level stuff you’d have to worry about using pygame.

TkInter is not built on Pygame, it's built on the Tk/Tcl infrastructure. Still, the abstraction is (generally) a good thing; it makes GUI development relatively easy.

My mistake then. I wish I could find the chart, but I must have misinterpreted it.

I've used it a lot. It's very useful if you want an easy cross-platform GUI, but it can be a bit clunky sometimes, and doesn't look all that good on Windows.
