This course teaches you how you can quickly create desktop apps with Python. Python makes software development easy, especially for quick prototyping. However, by default everything is inside a terminal window. By taking this course you'll be able to make desktop applications in Python.

Python has all kinds of GUI libraries including PyQt, Tkinter, wxPython etcetera. Instead of learning all these GUI libraries individually, you can use one which allows you easy switching between all of them.

The app examples how you can add anything in the desktop window: text boxes, buttons, list boxes and all the other components you use on a daily basis on your desktop computer. The course teaches you how to interact with all these components with just Python.
