Today I threw together a small #GUI in #Python to help with experimental characterisation of hardware for #flightsimulation. It's simply generating a sinusoidal signal within configurable limits, but now it's definitely easier to understand than running scripts in terminal.

I did enjoy the ease of setup of TkInter, and compatibility with Matplotlib, but I was missing the simplicity of immediate mode libraries. In trying to emulate these, now a few callbacks trigger "given this dataclass with state, the widgets should look like this".
The micro-management gremlin is whining that it's repeating useless work, but more importantly the window is complete and I can go on with the experiment.

It's the "Next" theme with some colors adjusted in my fork here:

Hello #Fediverse! Let's see if the mentions work as expected by acknowledging some people that helped me get online:

Thanks @grunfink@comam.es for the #snac server, @stefano@bsd.cafe for the blog posts that pointed me to it, @voron@snac.nya.pub for the theme and @manton@manton.org for motivating me with your book
