You need to see this front-end Python package
Welcome back! Python is an awesome programming language with a ton of capability, i’m sure you all know this by now, so if you’re a GUI developer you maybe bored of the options available (probably not, but roll with me here 😂), guess what? There is actually an awesome front-end package with a twist, this specific package is called textual, you can check it out below:
So, what’s different about textual? Well, this specific framework is actually a TUI, that stands for Text-User-Interface, I was confused to when I first saw that, but the below image from their GitHub helped me understand this package:
As you can see, this project actually renders text as a user interface, making it fairly different than other front-end packages for Python. Within their GitHub page there are several examples, check out this page below to see all of the examples they have:
This framework also has widget areas, these are essentially independent elements of your front-end, below is an example of this feature:
They also have sample code on their website as well, this will be an awesome place to start if you plan on using this framework:
There you have it! This is definitely one of the more fascinating front-end packages available for Python, do you plan on using this framework? I would love to hear your thoughts about it!
