What to learn to create a desktop application interface?

Hello! Prior to that, I was only doing web development with Django. But the following task appeared:
Create a desktop application to interact with the REST API. The application must have the following functionality:
- Take information from the server via API, parse it and display the table;
- Form for adding a record to the database via API
- Connecting a barcode scanner.

Since I was programming in Python before, I looked at PyQT5, but as far as I understood, it’s unlikely to draw a normal interface there. What would you recommend learning to create such an application? (Preferably in Python, but if it is impossible to make a normal beautiful interface on it, then it is possible on other languages)? Are there technologies for creating an interface on CSS styles and should they be used?

Slack, Skype, Discord are written on Electron...
if you don't use frameworks on the client, it will work smartly

Look towards Delphi and cross-platform framework FMX. Styling there occurs not by code (especially not by CSS), but by rivers, visually. You can see examples here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-IUzlqieYIqv5vFI... or here https://vk.com/delphilive
