What is CTkMaker?

A visual builder for Python developers using CustomTkinter. Skip the manual grid() juggling — drag widgets onto the canvas, edit properties in a familiar inspector, and let the builder generate the boilerplate.

Visual canvas

Drag, drop, snap, and align widgets just like a desktop UI designer.

Variables & bindings

Global and local variables with cross-document copy and scoped exporter.

Live preview

Run the form in a real CTk window without leaving the builder.

Clean Python export

Generated code is readable — no obfuscated runtime, no hidden framework.

Reusable components

Save any selection as a .ctkcomp.zip with assets bundled in.

Free & open

Open-source builder, MIT-licensed components, no account required.

What is the Hub?

The Hub is a community library of components built in CTkMaker. Anyone can browse and download .ctkcomp.zip files — buttons, forms, mini-apps, starters — and drop them straight into their own project.

Browse the library →

Filter by category, sort by featured / newest, preview screenshots, and download.

Share your work →

Publish from the builder, drop the file in a GitHub Discussion, see it on the site within ~30 minutes.
