Tkinter Designer was created to speed up the GUI-development process in Python. It uses the well-known design software Figma to make creating beautiful Tkinter GUIs in Python a piece of cake.
Tkinter Designer uses the Figma API to analyse a design file and create the respective code and files needed for the GUI. Even Tkinter Designer's GUI is created using Tkinter Designer.
- Drag and Drop Interfaces
- Significantly faster than creating code manually.
- Ability to create more beautiful interfaces.

The instructions contain all the information about installing and using Tkinter Designer, along with information for troubleshooting and reporting issues. There is also a video format.
Watch the Video
Read the Instructions
The only thing the user needs to do is design an interface with Figma, and then paste the Figma file URL and API token into Tkinter Designer.
Tkinter Designer will automatically generate all the code and images required to create the GUI in Tkinter.
The possibilities are endless with Tkinter Designer, but here are a couple of GUIs that can be perfectly replicated in Tkinter.
The following are not my creations.

✅ Figma Design Checklist (mentioned in the video and instructions)
- Background — should be named
Background(in Figma) - Buttons — should be named
Button(in Figma)- When creating a button, add a Rectangle behind the actual button with the same color as the background color.
- Entry — should be named
TextBox(in Figma) - Rectangles — should be named
Rectangle(in Figma) - Text — All text in the design should be created as text.
Before converting a Figma file to Python code using Tkinter Designer, make sure that both the X & Y coordinates of the frame are 0.
