nebulatk 0.3.2.5

Improved tkinter-style gui system.

NebulaTk

NebulaTk is an early-stage, Tkinter-style GUI toolkit with a custom widget/rendering pipeline. Widgets are composed into Pillow images and displayed through an OpenGL window backend.

Current status

• Project is in active early development.
• The current Window() path in this branch supports render_mode="image_gl" only, but might be expanded for vulkan later.
• Rendering currently depends on a GLFW + PyOpenGL backend.

Installation

From the repository root:

pip install -e .

For development and tests:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Quick start

import nebulatk as ntk

window = ntk.Window(title="NebulaTk")
ntk.Button(window, text="Hello NebulaTk").place(20, 20)

You can also run included examples:

python examples/example.py
python examples/relativeplace.py
python examples/word_collage.py

Note: example scripts may reference local assets under examples/Images/. If those assets are missing in your checkout, update image paths or provide your own files.

Running tests

From the project root:

pytest

Public API highlights

Top-level imports exposed by nebulatk include:

• Window
• FileDialog
• Widgets: Button, Label, Entry, Frame, Slider, Container
• Utility modules: colors_manager, fonts_manager, image_manager, bounds_manager, standard_methods, animation_controller, rendering, file_manager

Many widget methods are chainable, for example:

ntk.Button(window, text="Chainable").place(10, 10).hide().show()

Project layout

• nebulatk/ - main package source
• nebulatk/widgets/ - widget classes and base components
• examples/ - runnable usage demos
• tests/ - pytest test suite

Notes

• This project is not a drop-in implementation of Tk's internal event/render loop.
• The window/rendering architecture uses both threading and multiprocessing internally.
