Hi,

Which module is 'date.today()' from, not Qt is it?

You probably have to use the QDatetime: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdatetime.html#currentDateTime

>>> QDateTime.currentDateTime()
PyQt5.QtCore.QDateTime(2022, 3, 25, 8, 44, 19, 963)

And set THAT with the widget?

See: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdatetimeedit.html#dateTime-prop

(it always a little hassle to juggle with date/time etc in Python/Qt)
