simplify all things Windows.\\\n(See [Tom Scott ranting about it on YouTube](https://youtu.be/lIFE7h3m40U))\\\n**a2** helps getting, updating scripts and developing your own.\n\nBasically a2 is an **AutoHotkey runtime** running in the background that you conveniently configure with a [Qt for Python](https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_for_Python) **UI**.\n\nFeatures for this background app come via **modules** bundled in **packages**.\\\nEach module can have various script or configuration files\\\nand is presented with its own frontend UI to setup Hotkey shortcuts, Variables ect...\\\nThese frontend UIs are comprised of reusable elements that a developer can easily arrange.\n\nSee [the Wiki](https://github.com/ewerybody/a2/wiki) for more information especially:\n* [How to use a2](../../wiki/How-to-use-a2).\n* [How to develop a2](../../wiki/How-to-develop-a2).\n\n\n\n## Who is it for?\n\n### Everyday Computer people looking to automate/simplify working with Windows.\n* Simple setup and management of scripts\n  * No files to copy around or edit\n  * Updates via button press\n  * No intrusive installation (all integrations steps visualized, uninstall/delete and its gone)\n  * No admin rights needed\n* A range of things to try out\n* Build own simple modules without a line of code\n* ...and more!\n\n### AutoHotkey Script Developers\n* No boilerplate code needed\n* Broad library to keep your code DRY\n* Clickable UI components for most use-cases\n* Streamlined GitHub-driven deployment\n* ...and more!\n\n\"News\" have been moved.
