Current major GUI issues I'd like to see solved:

  • Does not respect macOS dark theme
  • Buttons with custom fonts look a little weird on macOS
  • Does not respect gtk theme in GNU/Linux
  • No out-of-the-box interface buttons (play/pause, etc.)
  • Frame playback is really slow on macOS

There's no easy way to solve these issues using tkinter.

The solution is a complete rewrite of the interface. @calebho and @keggsmurph21 were working on a GUI redesign using React. Will it address these issues, or will an Electron interface look identical on all platforms?

I'm partial to an interface that looks/feels "native" on all platforms. One library that offers this is wxPython.
