Tkinter has a simple, clean, Pythonic API. It handles the tedious housekeeping needed in GUI programming. You can focus on what's unique in your application. One HUGE Problem Tkinter has been around for a very long time. There's a lot of documentation, much of it created years ago. Nearly everything in that documentation still works today. But it's all wrong. Tkinter has a reputation for ugly and outdated user interfaces that don't fit in with modern systems. And if you follow the old documentation, that's exactly what you'll get. Tkinter has taken a quantum leap forward since all that documentation was written. There are new and better ways to build your user interface. Your program needs to be written differently to take advantage of that. Modern Tkinter shows you the right way to do it. You'll learn all the modern best practices. You'll build your user interface the right way the first time, without having to learn anything extra or irrelevant. It starts at the beginning, shows you what you need to know, and covers all the essential elements of building your modern user interface.
