Requirements:

• minimum python version 3.6
• tkinter
• pillow >= 6.0.0

Limitations:

• some widgets don't work well with all tkinter themes, it is recommended to set tkinter theme to 'default', 'alt', or 'classic' for things to work fine, so after creating your root you should change theme like example below

Example:

import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
import awesometkinter as atk

# our root
root = tk.Tk()
root.config(background=atk.DEFAULT_COLOR)

# it is recommended to select tkinter theme required for things to be right on windows,
# 'alt', 'default', or 'classic' work fine on windows
s = ttk.Style()
s.theme_use('default')

# 3d frame
f1 = atk.Frame3d(root)
f1.pack(side='left', expand=True, fill='both', padx=3, pady=3)

# 3d progressbar
bar = atk.RadialProgressbar3d(f1, fg='cyan', size=120)
bar.pack(padx=20, pady=20)
bar.start()

# 3d button
atk.Button3d(f1, text='3D Button').pack(pady=10)

f2 = atk.Frame3d(root)
f2.pack(side='left', expand=True, fill='both', padx=3, pady=3)

# flat radial progressbar
bar = atk.RadialProgressbar(f2, fg='green')
bar.pack(padx=30, pady=30)
bar.start()

atk.Button3d(f2, text='Pressed Button').pack(pady=10)

root.mainloop()

also, you can use a lot of useful functions that manipulate images, e.g. to create a tkinter PhotoImage from a file but want to change its size and color:

img = atk.create_image(fp='path to my image file', color='red', size=(150, 100))
