GUI

Mon May 01, 2017 3:10 pm

I must make a GUI on a raspberry pi for my final project. The GUI must contain variable information that the raspberry pi receive from an Arduino Mega. Is there a program where i can make easily a GUI with minimal programming experience?

Tkinter.

There is a new module for python cropping up on my searches that seems to look quite nice called guizero.
No idea if it works completely (it's new) and I've not tried it yet.
It's a tkinter (the graphical python stuff) wrapper, to simplify it to beginner kids level. Which seems perfect for big kids not wanting to just get something going. Like me :-)
