Turtle is built with Tkinter:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/turtle.html

IIRC, I used IDLE when first learning Python.
Dive Into Python 3 recommends IDLE.

Hopefully this bug is fixed by someone.

PyQt and PySide:
- are more accessible to screen readers
- support QThread, QThreadPool, QRunnable
- quamash is an asyncio event loop with/for Qt
- PyQtGraph
