Last year I surveyed the options for RAD GUI tools and landed on <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/PySimpleGUI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PySimpleGUI</span></a>. Over a few months I was able to iteratively develop and enhance a SQL query tool of modest complexity and found joy in accomplishing the task. No longer intimidated I am now exploring other options such as <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Streamlit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Streamlit</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Textual" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Textual</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/FunTech4Glyph" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FunTech4Glyph</span></a></p>
Glyph<p>For OPSEC reasons I cannot disclose whether I recently had, or may soon have, a birthday, but I probably was born at some point. In honor of that fact and inspired by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mcc" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>mcc</span></a></span>'s excellent <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Glitch4Andi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Glitch4Andi</span></a> hashtag, if you are so inclined, please post a story about or picture of a time (ideally in the last ~year) that a computer did something cool and fun and improved your life in some way, using the hashtag <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FunTech4Glyph" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FunTech4Glyph</span></a> .</p><p>(Bonus points if it looks cool and/or uses Python, but very much not necessary.)</p>
