A simple tool to make a GUI (sh.itjust.works)

Do you know libraries to write simple guis that are flexible and largely adopted so I can find guides and examples? No need to design any part of it, just a rigid table-like carcass for buttons and elements.

I'm yet to dip my toe in anything graphical, but I thought that my current learning project could use a simple interface. I'm just afraid I'd give up if it would be too complicated to implement and wire to my now terminal-controlled code.

Can you suggest something for a beginner?

Used tkinter once, it was easy enough. You could also try making a fancy cli with curses

I used PySimpleGUI once and I think it was really nice. Can handle user input for you etc. Layout is kinda intuitive, but a bit restricted (fine for most applications imo) and you have to understand the event loop. Would recommend. Was my first gui toolkit, too.
