Tkinter provides a convenient module called messagebox, which offers a set of pre-built dialog boxes for displaying messages, warnings, errors, and asking for user confirmation. These dialogs are essential for creating interactive and user-friendly Tkinter applications.

Tkinter applications are single-threaded, meaning that all GUI updates and event handling occur within the main thread. If you perform long-running operations directly in the main thread, your application will become unresponsive or “freeze” until the operation completes. To avoid this, you need to use threading to offload time-consuming tasks to separate threads.

Tkinter, Python’s standard GUI toolkit, allows you to display images in your applications. Let’s see how to load and display various image formats using Tkinter and the Pillow (PIL) library.

Pop-up windows, also known as dialog boxes or secondary windows, are essential for displaying additional information, prompting for user input, or showing alerts in graphical user interfaces. Tkinter provides several ways to create and manage pop-up windows in your Python applications.
