This week, we were tasked with building an app to interface with one of the boards we’ve worked on. I’ve had a fair amount of experience with apps and app programming, and I wanted to build an interface to control the drum (bucket drum) tracks for my final project.

I was caught catching up on inputs / outputs for my project this week and will return to this asap! I’m interested in learning a lot about Tcl/Tk and Tkinter (Tk being the GUI toolkit, Tcl/Tk being the GUI toolkit for Tcl specifically, and Tkinter being a Python binding for Tcl/Tk). It is in the standard library so looks like the way to go to get started!

Updated: See my project page for more! My machine runs from a shell off of the raspberry pi. A command-line interface controls its behavior.
