App visualisations

Out of curiosity, beginner somewhat. How do you create the visualisations for an app? Like the UI and the things the user sees, how do you create those things? I've completed the C++ course and a few others, but I've not seen anything related to this, or so I think.

You're probably looking for a GUI framework. There are several different GUI frameworks, for example GTK, QT and Flutter. Most of them support several platforms and multiple programming languages. You can check out their websites and look around a bit to find out which one fits your needs the best: https://www.gtk.org/ https://www.qt.io/ https://flutter.dev/

There are tools that you can steer from a programming language, that have the different components of a UI, like windows, menus, buttons etc, implemented. HTML/CSS work hand in hand with Javascript, with Python you can most easily use tkinter, but also for example Kivy or Qt, the last one being a popular choice for C++ too. I have only played a bit with Python and tkinter, but to me it felt... well, not the same, but definitely comparable to how you control output from Javascript.
