Python Dev Unveils Innovative GUI Solution Using Layered Images

A Python developer, Manish Kathuria, has introduced a novel GUI solution that leverages layered image files to create engaging user interfaces. This lightweight library, now available on GitHub, has been praised by tech enthusiasts, including those at Hackaday.

Kathuria's library allows users to transform nearly any graphic into a UI object, supporting irregular-shaped buttons, sliders, and more. This innovative approach enables the creation of visually-appealing interfaces with minimal coding.

To use this solution, one can employ simple image editors like GIMP or MS Paint to design the UI elements. The library then layers these images to create interactive interfaces. This method has been featured before, alongside other neat GUI tools for embedded environments.
