Favorite gui framework
I am looking to make a little gui app but have only ever written cli scripts with python. What is your go to gui framework? I have been messing with tkinter since its a default library and seems easy enough to use.

I happen to like Dear PyGui. No OOP or classes required like Qt or Tkinter. Available at Github, installation is 'pip install dearpygui'. It's only 1 Mb on Windows and can be made standalone with for example pyinstaller.
Super cool. Thanks for sharing.

It's pretty amazing, but still very much in development and the API keeps on changing.
Point taken! I agree that it is still rather new and developing, yet I see that as a good thing. For a little GUI app, the API won't break (not in any significant way) and the upside of Dear PyGui is that lots of new and interesting features are on the roadmap!
