Build a Pixel Art Paint App using Tkinter

Explore Python app development by building a pixel art drawing app. Using Python’s standard GUI toolkit Tkinter, you’ll construct a UI-oriented app that allows you to “paint” on a grid in a pixel art style with varying colors – all with only Python and Tkinter. Not only will you enhance your Python programming skills in practical ways with a portfolio-worthy project, but also gain newfound GUI techniques that will allow you to create even more complicated Python-based applications.

You will learn how to:

Build an interactable grid
Set up various control panel elements
Add the ability to both draw and erase “pixels”
Implement a color picker system with UI
Create a screenshot saving system

Frameworks and tools covered: Python 3.9, Tkinter 8.6
