Code with Explanation

From personal experience, I have found that it is usually easier to manage all widgets in a widgets method. That is what I did here, and it worked. Also, instead of parent, I used master. I will now walk you through the code step-by-step.

from Tkinter import *

We import Tkinter (GUI stuff)

class App(Frame):

We create a class called App, which is the Frame where widgets are held.

    def __init__(self, master):
        Frame.__init__(self, master)
        self.grid()
        self.widgets()

We create a method called __init__. This initializes the class, and runs another method called widgets.

    def widgets(self):


        menubar = Menu(root)
        menubar.add_command(label="File")
        menubar.add_command(label="Quit", command=root.quit())

        root.config(menu=menubar)

We create the widgets method. This is where the widget, menubar is added. If we were to create anymore widgets, they would also be here.

root=Tk()
root.title("Menubar")
app=App(root)
root.mainloop()

Lastly, we give the entire window some properties. We give it a title, Menubar, and run the App class. lastly, we start the GUI's mainloop with root.mainloop.
