Tkinter, Creating Forms

#tkinter #python #tutorial #forms

NOTE

If you are coming here for the first time or have no idea about tkinter, checkout the Getting Started dev-post

In this tutorial we will be creating a simple signup form which contains some text field, Checkbox, and a submit button.

Entry Widget

The entry widget is used for creating input fields.
Syntax :

#text field : username
Label(root, text="Username").grid(row = 0,column = 0)
Entry(root).grid(row = 0,column = 1)
#text field : password
Label(root, text="Password").grid(row = 1,column = 0)
Entry(root).grid(row = 1,column = 1)

Here, I'm using grid placement which allows us to place all items in a tabular manner.

CheckButton Widget

Using this widget, we can create a simple checkbox which we can toggle on or off.

Syntax:

#Checkbox field
Checkbutton(root,text="Remember?").grid(row=2, column=1)

The text variable basically replaces the Label widget's role and also acts as a checkbox whenever you click on the text which makes your application more accessible.

Button Widget

As you already know, the Button widget is basically a button ;)

#Submit button
Button(root, text = 'Submit').grid(row=3, column=0)

That's it. You can make it more beautiful by making the form centered and then adding some colors to it too.

I've made a GitHub repository too. (feel free to make some PR's) :

An Animated Guide to Node.js Event Loop

Node.js doesn’t stop from running other operations because of Libuv, a C++ library responsible for the event loop and asynchronously handling tasks such as network requests, DNS resolution, file system operations, data encryption, etc.

What happens under the hood when Node.js works on tasks such as database queries? We will explore it by following this piece of code step by step.
