It provides a **user-friendly GUI** built with **CustomTkinter** and supports **auto-typing** of received messages.\n\n---\n\n## Acknowledgment\n\nThis project was developed with ${{\\color{red}\\textsf{ extensive\\ use\\ of\\ ChatGPT to\\ speed\\ up\\ the\\ coding\\ process }}}$. However, the success of this project was not solely dependent on AI-generated code. The familiarity and expertise in the tools and technologies used—such as Python, Tkinter, CustomTkinter, and networking concepts—were crucial in understanding, debugging, and refining the implementation.\n\nChatGPT served as a tool to accelerate development, but the ability to analyze, modify, and optimize the generated code played a key role in ensuring the project's quality and functionality.\n\n---\n\n## 📌 Features\n\n### **🔹 Main Menu**\n- Choose to start as **Server** or **Client**.\n  \n### **🔹 Server Mode**\n- Host a **server** and allow multiple clients to connect.\n- Shows **server IP \u0026 port** (customizable before starting).\n- Displays a **list of connected clients** (updates when clients disconnect).\n- Broadcast messages to all clients using a text box.\n- **Remove newline** option for better formatting.\n- Gracefully **disconnects all clients** when the server stops.\n\n### **🔹 Client Mode**\n- Connect to a **server** by entering its **IP \u0026 port**.\n- **Displays incoming messages with timestamps \u0026 date**.\n- **Auto-typing feature** (optional) to type received messages using `pyautogui`.\n- Shows **total messages received**.\n- Disconnects cleanly by sending a **disconnect signal** to the server.\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Installation \u0026 Setup\n\n### **🔹 Prerequisites**\n- Python 3.9+\n- `pip` (Python package manager)\n\n### **🔹 Install Dependencies**\nRun the following command:\n```sh\npip install -r requirements.txt\n```\n\n### **🔹 Run the Application**\nStart the application using:\n```sh\npython NetworkCopyWriter.py\n```\n\n---\n\n## 🖼️ Screenshots\n\n### **Main Menu**\n![Client Page](images/main.png)\n\n### **Server Page**\n![Client Page](images/port.png)\n![Client Page](images/server.png)\n\n### **Client Page**\n![Client Page](images/serverdetails.png)\n![Client Page](images/Client.png)\n\n---\n\n## 🛠️ Build as Windows Executable\n\nTo create a standalone **Windows executable**, use:\n```sh\npyinstaller --onefile --windowed --icon=logo.ico --add-data \"logo.ico;.\" main.py\n```\n- `--onefile` → Creates a single EXE file.\n- `--windowed` → Hides the console window.\n- `--icon=logo.ico` → Sets the app icon for the EXE.\n- `--add-data \"logo.ico;.\"` → Ensures logo.ico is included in the package.\n\n---\n\n## 🎯 Contributing\n\n1. **Fork** this repository.\n2. **Clone** your fork:\n   ```sh\n   git clone https://github.com/UtpalKuma-r/NetworkCopyWriter.git\n   ```\n3. **Create a new branch**:\n   ```sh\n   git checkout -b feature-branch\n   ```\n4. **Make changes** and **commit**:\n   ```sh\n   git commit -m \"Added new feature\"\n   ```\n5. **Push to GitHub**:\n   ```sh\n   git push origin feature-branch\n   ```\n6.
