Creating multiple buttons in tkinter in a class - python 3

I'm making a gui for a program i'm creating for a project. I've made multiple buttons in the same row, is it possible to do this in a class so I don't have to keep repeating code? Thanks

flashcards.config(height = 15, width = 45 )
flashcards.place(x=1, y=600)

cMinigames = tk.Button(text="Core Minigames", bg="DarkSeaGreen1", fg="ghost white")
cMinigames.config(height = 15, width = 45)
cMinigames.place(x=300, y=600)

timetables = tk.Button(text="Timetables", bg="DarkSeaGreen1", fg="ghost white")
timetables.config(height = 15, width = 45 )
timetables.place(x=600, y=600)

quizzes = tk.Button(text="Quizzes", bg="DarkSeaGreen1", fg="ghost white")
quizzes.config(height = 15, width = 45 )
quizzes.place(x=900, y=600)

pmf = tk.Button(text="Pick My Focus!", bg="DarkSeaGreen1", fg="ghost white")
pmf.config(height = 15, width = 50 )
pmf.place(x=1200, y=600)```

Yeah, sure you can. There are multiple ways to create buttons that look alike. One of the ways is creating classes as you've mentioned.

class MyButtons(tk.Button):
    def __init__(self,master,**kwargs):
        super().__init__(master =master, **kwargs)
        self.outlook = {"bg":"DarkSeaGreen1","fg":"ghost white","height":15,"width":45}
        self.config(self.outlook)

If you want to change the background color of the buttons, just change the "bg" option in your self.outlook dictionary. You can also add additional configuration options to the self.outlook dictionary.

After creating the class, you need to create your buttons using that class:

mybutton1 = MyButtons(root,text="Button 1")
mybutton1.place(x=100,y=100)

Another method to create buttons that look alike is using Ttk styles. That is another option. You may want to take a look at that.
