Menus, buttons and other widgets for Pygame

[metulburr]

pyglet also doesnt have any UI like buttons as well (i think). Pyglet is like pygame. I feel like the community is smaller in pyglet than in pygame. 

Kivy is mainly for mobile devices and actually has its own language. Most of the time you are not typing out python syntax but kivy syntax. Here is a small example of an input box and label in kivy

<ScatterTextWidget>:
    orientation: 'vertical'
    TextInput:
        id: my_textinput
        font_size: 150
        size_hint_y: None
        height: 200
        text: 'default'
    FloatLayout:
        Scatter:
            Label:
                text: my_textinput.text
                font_size: 150

while here is the python script that runs it

from kivy.app import App

from kivy.uix.scatter import Scatter
from kivy.uix.label import Label
from kivy.uix.floatlayout import FloatLayout
from kivy.uix.textinput import TextInput
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout

class ScatterTextWidget(BoxLayout):
    pass

class MainApp(App):
    def build(self):
        return ScatterTextWidget()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    MainApp().run()

As you can see the meat of the program is in the kivy syntax

So is the basic idea that I should mostly do it myself, using other's codes for examples?

Yeah its kinda stupid that they havent implemented a basic UI system. You do get use to it. Once you find good code, and understand it, you dont have to change it much....if ever. I have always used the same button class for years in all my games without changing the button code because its flexible to handle multiple situations. You just have to keep uploading it to each of your games instead of expecting it to be in pygame.

It has a lot of basic examples for learning and as well as some repos of good coded flexible UI tools off the bat.
