Yeah, but after a long learning process i can finally use tkinter well, however after reading about kivy and bulldozer i think i m going to ha e to start the process all over again. What about QT5, is it better than tk? Kivy id cross platform right, not just for mobile apps?

In general i find tkinter too lacking for todays programming needs. If you want to learn GUI in pyhon you should try the most popular ones and stick with the one you prefer or the one your project needs

Yes kivy is cross platform. Maybe some changes are needed when changing from touchscreens but in general no modifications are needed. Watch out because it can become quite heavy if you are not careful. Qt5 is, imo, better than tk. Most of it comes prebuilt, and it has an existing editor, made by the Qt team. It is free for non profit projects too.
