Not sure if this is the obvious next step.
Depending on what your objective is.

There are plenty of different Python modules
to *create* (not to *design*) GUIs.

For example: Gradio, DearPyGUI, Pyside6 and
many more.

All those are plenty documented, with many
examples as well.
With more or less pre-cooked structures.

Of course, if the objective is to *design*
the GUI, then possibly Cambalache may be
the right tool.
