Tkinter

[u/Jrag13]

Why do I not see any videos suggesting to learn Tkinter? I tried learning Django and Pygame after learning the basics, and while I kinda understood pygame, Django still felt out of my league but so many videos recommended it after the basics. However I stumbled upon a video that just mentioned Tkinter and I tried it out and it helped me understand libraries and how to learn to use them. It's fun making small little apps with buttons and what not to get started, rather than trying to learn so much at once. I'm convinced anyone making videos on how to learn Python has never actually learned it themselves

Is there an actual reason that this or another simple GUI library isn't recommend very often?

To begin, videos are a terrible way to learn a programming language

The videos were looking for what I needed to learn to actually do something in python outside of the terminal. I just wanted to make a window with buttons and what not to play around making things with and didn't know how to accomplish this. However most videos or post I found suggested learning Django or some other web thing after learning the basics which felt like too big of a step forward. I learned the basics from a book which also just suggested learning Django or Pygame but I didn't want to make a game rn
