Why This Project Is Awesome

Which criterion does it meet? (pick one)

Industry Standard - The go-to tool for a specific use case
Rising Star - 5,000+ stars in <2 years, significant adoption
Hidden Gem - Exceptional quality, solves niche problems elegantly

Explain:
Has 13k on github. Gained close to 5K stars in the past couple of years. This adds a modern UI design on top of python's standard built-in GUI library - tkinter. Similar syntax to tkinter, which makes it easier to work with. Distributed in MIT license, less restrictive while compared to other GUI libraries and frameworks in the industry.

How It Differs

Main and important difference is the license.

If similar entries exist, what makes this one unique?
The built-in standard library tkinter is outdated, this project give a modern look to that framework.
