I would like to hear about which GUI platform you all consider to be best?

I started with tkinter, and then found out that I needed to also learn sqlite3 for database work and reportlab to print anything, each open source but with different documentation, styles and user groups.

Pyside2 (PyQt5) is also open source, with the above and much else, all under one roof.

Is there any reason not to dedicate time and effort to master PySide2?
If you choose Qt5, I'd use module pyyqt5 vs pyside2
tkinter is lightweight and fine for day to day GUI, but can't match up to Qt5
There is also wxpython phoenix to look at which is 100 % non-commercial
