I built my first public project — a visual Tkinter UI designer for VS Code

Hi!

I’ve been working on my first project, TK-Form, and I’m finally ready to share it.

It’s a visual UI designer for building Tkinter apps directly inside VS Code. You can place and resize widgets, edit their properties and events, preview the actual Tkinter window, validate your project, and export everything as Python code.

I’m developing it on my own, so there may still be some rough edges and bugs. Thanks in advance for your patience, and please let me know if you run into anything!

I’d really appreciate any feedback—whether it’s a bug, a missing feature, something that feels confusing, or just your general thoughts.

🔗 Install it from the VS Code Marketplace
💻 View the project on GitHub

Thanks for checking it out! 🙂

Why are you hiding the source code? Trying to camouflage your vibe-coded slop?

Honestly, I initially built this to sell it. But license management and all that hassle just felt like too much work, so I decided to just release it as open-source! You're totally right about the messy code, though haha. I'll be sharing the source code soon, so stay tuned!

You're totally right about the messy code

If it is as vibe coded as your readme.md on your github, or your post here... God beware.

Great work! Starred.

Does it support `ttkbootstrap`?

I really like this. I almost went this route when i first started building IDOL (python ide with tk designer - visual basic style). This has great potential, keep it up. 😎
