Learning Path: Python GUI Projects

One cannot ignore the benefits of a well-designed architecture and graphical user interface for applications. Let’s see how one of the most powerful language–Python–aids us in creating powerful enterprise-ready applications.

Packt’s Video Learning Paths are an amalgamation of multiple video courses that are logically tied together to provide you with a larger learning curve.

This Learning Path teaches important programming concepts of Python along with giving you the step-by-step approach of creating applications.

In the initial part of the Learning Path we will be focusing on creating applications. The latter part of the Learning Path focuses on a powerful GUI package—Tkinter—that comes with standard Python distributions. It delivers the bigger picture of GUI programming by building real-world, productive, and fun applications, such as a text editor, drum machine, game of chess, media player, drawing application, chat application, screen saver, and port scanner. In every project, you will build on the skills acquired in the previous project and gain more expertise.

After completing this Learning Path, you will have successfully created 14 high-end GUI applications, and will be capable of building many more powerful and scalable applications.
