BeeWare

For Python, I'd encourage you to look at the BeeWare suite. BeeWare allows you to write GUI's once and build for desktop and mobile (and eventually, web, again). It's still writing a GUI instead of working visually, but for basic to intermediate apps, you don't have to get into the nitty gritty of UI design, know anything about Qt (wooooo), and build a nice, capable GUI app. https://beeware.org/.

Xojo

I really recommend Xojo[1] (formally RealBasic). It’s like a modern VB6 but runs on macOS, Windows and many flavours of Linux. It has very polished drag and drop UI editor. I’ve been developing with it for over 20 years and my 10 year old daughter is now learning programming with it. You can create and debug apps for free and only need a license to deploy an app as a binary so it’s ideal to learn with. Heck, it can even build for the raspberry pi. [1]: https://xojo.com.
