GUI development is not easy. For personal projects, webGUI is an option. But this is getting off-topic. Making beautiful GUI in React is easier than in Python. But if you must, I think PyGobject is a good choice.

Electron is not getting a lot of love, i know. It have a big filesize, a resource hog, and potential security hole. Perhaps you have a better alternative?

It really depends on what you consider “best”. I think portability is important in Python, and it is a pity to pick a non-portable toolkit for an highly-portable language. Personally I like Qt (via PyQt) but it is not in the standard python library, so you need to install/distribute it with your application, and PyQt license may not be what you like (PySide could be better in this case, but AFAIK is not as healthy as PyQt). On the other hand, tkinter is distributed with Python3 and it could be fine for simple applications. Documentation is not as clear as in PyQt and IMHO it takes a little bit more of patience, but you may prefer to distribute your python script and have it run without external dependencies.

You are not telling Tkinter to do what you expect it to do😀 That is the problem. Anyway, try Kivy or PyQt. I like Kivy better since i can create both mobile and desktop app with the same code

Have anyone tried Beeware? I played with the sample tutorial and it seems simple and straightforward. Plus you can build for Android, too. As for beautiful, the styling uses css-like pattern, so I guess you can customize it the way you want. Also, use Python 3.8. I had some problems witl Python 3.9.
