Transforms the tkinter, Qt, WxPython, and Remi (browser-based) GUI frameworks into a simpler interface. The window definition is simplified by using Python core data types understood by beginners (lists and dictionaries). Further simplification happens by changing event handling from a callback-based model to a message passing one.

This version of the PySimpleGUI readme wouldn't have come together without the help from [@M4cs](https://github.com/M4cs). He's a fantastic developer and has been a PySimpleGUI supporter since the project's launch. [@israel-dryer](https://github.com/israel-dryer) is another long-term supporter and has written several PySimpleGUI programs that pushed the envelope of the package's capabilities. The unique minesweeper that uses an image for the board was created by Israel. [@jason990420](https://github.com/jason990420) surprised many when he published the first card game using PySimpleGUI that you see pictured above as well as the first minesweeper game made with PySimpleGUI. [@Chr0nicT](https://github.com/Chr0nicT) is the youngest developer I've worked with, ever, on projects. This kid shocks me on a regular basis. Ask for a capability, such as the PySimpleGUI GitHub Issues form error checking bot, and it simply happens regardless of the technologies involved. I'm fortunate that we were introduced. Someday he's going to be whisked away, but until then we're all benefiting from his talent. The Japanese version of the readme was greatly improved with help from [@okajun35](https://github.com/okajun35). [@nngogol](https://github.com/nngogol) has had a very large impact on the project, also getting involved with PySimpleGUI in the first year of initial release. He wrote a designer, came up with the familiar window[key] lookup syntax, wrote the tools that create the documentation, designed the first set of doc strings as well as tools that generate the online documenation using the PySimpleGUI code itself. PySimpleGUI would not be where it is today were it not for the help of these individuals.

The PySimpleGUI team is tiny and they're all superstars. Every week I've been stunned by what they do. Dream-team is an understatement. Simply put [@Chr0nicT](https://github.com/Chr0nicT), [@jason990420](https://github.com/jason990420), [@Snaiel](https://github.com/snaiel) and Mike[@PySimpleGUI](https://github.com/PySimpleGUI) ***are*** PySimpleGUI.

You all have my respect and admiration. You're enabling bigger things. What a special kind of thing to make. Who knows what you've enabled. I believe more people are getting over to your creations and getting to experience them.

tkinter team - PySimpleGUI would be nowhere without your lengthy work & continios dedication. ONE GUI API for 3 different OS's? Really? With no code changes to move between? That's a huge accomplishment. You're #1 to me.

Hi there! I'm Mike. You'll find me right here, on the PySimpleGUI GitHub, solving problems and continuously pushing PySimpleGUI forward. I've dedicated my days, nights, and weekends to the project and PySimpleGUI users. Our successes are ultimately shared. I'm successful when you're successful.

This version of the PySimpleGUI readme wouldn't have come together without the help from [@M4cs](https://github.com/M4cs). He's a fantastic developer and has been a PySimpleGUI supporter since the project's launch. [@israel-dryer](https://github.com/israel-dryer) is another long-term supporter and has written several PySimpleGUI programs that pushed the envelope of the package's capabilities. The unique minesweeper that uses an image for the board was created by Israel. [@jason990420](https://github.com/jason990420) surprised many when he published the first card game using PySimpleGUI that you see pictured above as well as the first minesweeper game made with PySimpleGUI. [@Chr0nicT](https://github.com/Chr0nicT) is the youngest developer I've worked with, ever, on projects. This kid shocks me on a regular basis. Ask for a capability, such as the PySimpleGUI GitHub Issues form error checking bot, and it simply happens regardless of the technologies involved. I'm fortunate that we were introduced. Someday he's going to be whisked away, but until then we're all benefiting from his talent. The Japanese version of the readme was greatly improved with help from [@okajun35](https://github.com/okajun35). [@nngogol](https://github.com/nngogol) has had a very large impact on the project, also getting involved with PySimpleGUI in the first year of initial release. He wrote a designer, came up with the familiar window[key] lookup syntax, wrote the tools that create the documentation, designed the first set of doc strings as well as tools that generate the online documenation using the PySimpleGUI code itself. PySimpleGUI would not be where it is today were it not for the help of these individuals.

The PySimpleGUI team is tiny and they're all superstars. Every week I've been stunned by what they do. Dream-team is an understatement. Simply put [@Chr0nicT](https://github.com/Chr0nicT), [@jason990420](https://github.com/jason990420), [@Snaiel](https://github.com/snaiel) and Mike[@PySimpleGUI](https://github.com/PySimpleGUI) ***are*** PySimpleGUI.

The overseas users that post on Twitter overnight are the spark that starts the day's work on PySimpleGUI. They've been a source of positive energy that gets the development engine started and ready to run every day. As a token of appreciation, this readme file has been translated into [Japanese](https://github.com/PySimpleGUI/PySimpleGUI/blob/master/readme.ja.md).
