• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

Im assuming you mean tutorials or simply abbreviating tutorials.
I found some resources that should help you learn customtkinter.

Docs:
https://customtkinter.tomschimansky.com/documentation/

Take a good look at the docs as it going to be the main way you are going to learn the ins and outs of the module.
I personally use ctk for a lot of beginner projects and find its lots of fun and easy to use. Its main use is its modern syle/colors right out of the box.
Hope this helps ya!

tkdocs was my main resource for learning the underlying concepts of tkinter
https://tkdocs.com/tutorial/index.html
if you want to see my personal style of writing tkinter apps which is primarily characterized by grid() and widget subclasses:

can i learn just customtinker or do i need to learn tkinter aswell?

[meager halo]

@raven kayak I think I tried using CustomTkinter and it didnt have everything from tkinter implemented but that was a while ago

you might want to check on that

Ppersonally I'd go with tkinter between the two because you have more resources and you'll get help easier

[long root]

the core concepts of tkinter apply to customtkinter too, namely geometry management (how you place widgets) and event handling

afaik their main difference is the set of built-in widgets they provide, and how they're styled
