Create a 2048 Game in Python With Tkinter

Introduction

In this project, you'll learn how to create a simple 2048 game using Python and the Tkinter library for the graphical user interface. 2048 is a popular sliding puzzle game where you combine tiles to reach the tile with a value of 2048. While this project won't create the most modern and beautiful user interface, it will provide a solid foundation that you can build upon to enhance the aesthetics.
