PyUIBuilder Vs Manual Coding

Feature	PyUIBuilder	Manual Coding
UI Creation	✅ See what you are designing using drag and drop, then export clean code, without worrying about the Widget classes or variable names	Have to manually run and test the code to get the visual output, more error prone.
Layouts	✅ Easily configure layouts for the widgets and see how it looks before exporting	Must manually code layout logic, increasing chances of misaligned elements.
Event Handling	✅ Easily get the list of events available for each widget and connect it via the interface	Requires searching and manually binding events in code and managing references for each widget.
Framework Flexibility	✅ Easily switch and use different GUI frameworks without prior knowledge (Tkinter, Customtk, etc.)	Requires knowledge about different frameworks to be able to code and write in different frameworks
Grid Snapping	✅ Visual grid with snapping for precise widget placement	Positioning widgets precisely is trial-and-error and often inconsistent.
Live Preview	✅ Preview designs instantly without writing a single line of code	Must execute the Python script repeatedly to see any changes.
Code Quality	✅ Generates clean, structured, and maintainable Python code automatically	Quality depends on the developer’s coding style and discipline.
Learning Curve	✅ Beginner-friendly — build apps visually without needing deep coding knowledge	Requires strong Python skills and framework-specific knowledge.
Speed	✅ Faster prototyping and reduced development time with visual tools.	Slower process as both UI and logic need to be coded line by line.
