    app.mainloop()

the error displayed is .
AttributeError: ‘module’ object has no attribute ‘api’

Answer 1

The error message is clear, isn’t it? The twitter module has no attribute named “api”.

A quick google showed me some examples that have a “.Api()” method (capital A). Maybe that is your problem.
