# guizero
[guizero](https://lawsie.github.io/guizero) is a Python 3 library for creating simple GUIs.
It is designed to allow new learners to quickly and easily create GUIs for their programs.
```python
from guizero import App, Text, PushButton
app = App(title="guizero")
intro = Text(app, text="Have a go with guizero and see what you can create.")
ok = PushButton(app, text="Ok")
app.display()
```
## Install
If you can download and unzip a file, you can [install guizero](https://lawsie.github.io/guizero/#easy-install) - **no special permissions or administrator rights are required**.
If you have administrator rights and are connected to the internet, you can [use the command line to install or upgrade guizero](https://lawsie.github.io/guizero/#install-using-command-line).

## Aims
The aim of guizero is to make the process of creating simple GUIs quick, accessible and understandable for new learners.
* Works with standard Python Tkinter GUI library (and no need to install other libraries)
* Abstracts away details new learners find difficult to understand (such as Tkinter StringVar() objects)
* Accessible widget naming system to help new learners to build up a mental model
* Flexible enough to be used for projects up to A-Level standard, yet accessible to primary school children
* Comprehensive and accessible documentation with examples
* Generates helpful additional error messages
