Sun-Valley-ttk-theme VS DearPyGui

Welp, I have been messing around with a small project using PySimpleGUI using Deepseek to help me learn it. I found a cool project that has a very nice theme for 'ttk' widgets[0] which are supported in PySimpleGUI. Not sure how to proceed... I guess I will use the uncertainty to explore some of these 100% pure python web dev for shits and grins[1].

I've just gotten into Tkinter and I just recently found out about TTK themes. I've been using this theme and I've got a fairly basic program up. I'm making an expense manager program (and it is far from complete) and I need something basic to just test if my program is working. I will be using the theme later on though so this will still be helping as I'm experimenting with the theme and the program at the same time.

Tkinter looks different between operating systems, but I'm not an expert. Perhaps if you specify a ttk.Style or install some 3rd party theme like Sun Valley.

I'm pleased to announce that today I've released a new version of my gorgeous Sun Valley theme, with which you can make your Tkinter/ttk application look like Windows 11.

Anyway, continue to use tkinter unless you have a specific use case for using another designer, and use either CustomTkinter or tkk styles. Here's a basic one which looks pretty much native on win10: https://github.com/rdbende/Sun-Valley-ttk-theme

I used this https://github.com/rdbende/Sun-Valley-ttk-theme

the theme i want to use is "sun valley", available on GitHub

For native GUI, DearPyGui[0] as modern as you can.

For browser web-based GUI, you can use nicegui[1]

If it's just to align text in the centre or to the right of a box, you could use a button and, by using theming, hide the fact that it's a button. https://github.com/hoffstadt/DearPyGui/issues/1111

Personally, i like PyQt or PySide they have basically everything you need to make a proper app or even simple apps, but there is another DearPyGui this is basically python version of imgui the c++ library, it provides some good customization options and can be used for simple or complex projects too, their discord is also very helpful.

There are some examples in the showcase as well. https://github.com/hoffstadt/DearPyGui/wiki/Dear-PyGui-Showcase

I'm a big fan of DearPyGUI

Use a button and set width of the button equal to the width of the window. Using theming to set the button text alignment to center. A comparable solution, for aligning to the right, can be found here. https://github.com/hoffstadt/DearPyGui/issues/1111

I was using PyQt5/PySide which will give you a nice native look but I eventually shifted over to DearPyGui for most of my smaller utilities. Its just faster for me. You will get more options and freedom with PyQt/PySide though and can use QT Designer to design your interfaces pretty easily.
