GUI Design with Java/Python?

Question

So, if you're a beginner at programming with Python or Java, how do you go about designing and implementing a GUI? All good software needs a good GUI, and these tutorials show you how to write the code but not how to put together or use an interface. What are some best practices or tips on creating a GUI?

Answer 1

Choose a gui api and go through the official tutorials first. They will teach you most likely best practices for the particular language/api.

Answer 2

Can't speak for Java, but in Python you have several libraries to choose from, as far as GUI is concerned. A couple of them:
* tkinter - built-in module - basic window, based GUI, frames, tables, buttons and stuff
* pygame - designed for game building, lots of event-based methods, great dynamic sprite support
* kivy - robust and advanced GUI, with support for different platforms and operating systems
