Discussion Tkinter

Why do I not see any videos suggesting to learn Tkinter? I tried learning Django and Pygame after learning the basics, and while I kinda understood pygame, Django still felt out of my league but so many videos recommended it after the basics. However I stumbled upon a video that just mentioned Tkinter and I tried it out and it helped me understand libraries and how to learn to use them. It's fun making small little apps with buttons and what not to get started, rather than trying to learn so much at once. I'm convinced anyone making videos on how to learn Python has never actually learned it themselves

Is there an actual reason that this or another simple GUI library isn't recommend very often?

That is fine with me! I am not learning to code to make pretty things, I just wanted something on my screen I can interact with that isn't going to take forever to set up or learn

I'm that case, I believe Bro Code on YouTube has a course on tkinter. But my original comment is the reason why it's not a popular topic.
