Tools aren't the flashiest, most attention-grabbing type of software. But a great tool—one that successfully automates or enhances a repetitive process—gives valuable time back to your colleagues, allowing them to spend less time clicking buttons and more time on thoughtful projects. Tool development exists in a space between IT support and software engineering, and if youre tasked with creating tools, there are some important principles to keep in mind. In this course, Scott Simpson discusses designing for end users, craftsmanship, and trust as they relate to building small software utilities. He surveys concepts related to tool development, and uses Python to explore ideas that youll want to keep in mind when developing tools for your users.

Developing graphical user interfaces (GUIs) in Python traditionally involves a lot of manual coding. wxGlade, a GUI designer written in Python for the wxPython GUI toolkit, was designed to help simplify this process. In this course, learn how to quickly develop Python GUI apps using the wxPython library—which brings the wxWidgets capability to Python—and the wxGlade tool. To lend each concept a real-world context, instructor Malcom Shore steps through how to build a cybersecurity compliance app based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. Malcom begins by detailing how to create a simple wxPython application. He then shows how to construct a user interface for your application using wxGlade and add functional application code to put the finishing touches on your project.
