If I write a Python program with a GUI, can I launch it from the Linux CLI and still get the GUI?
I'm expecting the answer to be no, but I want to confirm. If I write a Python program with a GUI, can I launch it from the Linux CLI and still get the GUI? I'm exploring whether I can build an embedded Linux system while excluding all unnecessary components. This device will function like a kiosk, so all I need is my Python GUI. @Middleware & OS

It depends....
You need a display in order to show the GUI. With the right configuration, you could launch a graphical app from the command line.
