Think of them this way.
Frame is the base widget. It is just an empty window with no
decorations. Toplevel is a frame with window decorations that
makes it visible to your desktop manager[*]. MainWindow is just a special
instance of Toplevel; it's simply the first Toplevel in your program.

overrideredirect(1), and when using -use() and -container().
