Hi folks

I want to create a mod manager.

It will need a GUI that can sort, organise, filter a list by Load order, Name or date installed.
It will need to be able to parse to & from an xml, (Which is the file the game uses to read the load order & mod list.)
It will need to be able to grab the number of files in a folder & parse their names into the GUI


Now I've taken a basics course in python so I know the fundamentals but I'm still a complete beginner. I know this is a relatively big project for a beginner but with a good set of reference material relevant to this project I think it should be achievable.

What can you recommend?
1. That will be a function of you're back end, not your GUI. You can write this code.
2. use BeautifulSoup4 and lxml packages
3. Code you write, can use pathlib or os.listdir
