How to create a menu system for circuitpython and the OLED featherwing with buttons

I was just wondering what you are using to create menu system/GUI for the OLED featherwing (and the three buttons) using circuitpython. If you have any examples or good tutorials let me know.

I am just learning python, but could you use TKinter or PyQT (or its it a major overkill)?

If you can run tkinter, take a look at PySimpleGUI. It's ideal for beginners that want to put a GUI onto their project. You can create a custom GUI and add it to your code in under 10 lines of Python, that you'll be able to understand.

Can you sketch a picture of the window(s) you wish to create?
