## 📦 Packaging Instructions
Follow these steps to package/build the Python script into an executable using **PyInstaller**:
1. **Extract ZIP**
Extract the downloaded ZIP file into a directory of your choice.
2. **Install PyInstaller**
Open a terminal/command prompt and install PyInstaller (if not already installed):
```bash
pip install pyinstaller
```
3. **Build Using the `.spec` File**
(skip this if you want to do it manually)
Use the provided `.spec` file to replicate the exact settings used during development, run:
```bash
pyinstaller Hardware_Information.spec
```
This will generate the executable in the `dist/` folder, using the configurations from the `.spec` file.
4. **Build Without the `.spec` File** -#
If you prefer to compile manually, run:
```bash
pyinstaller --onefile Hardware_Information.py
```
- `--onefile`: Combines all dependencies into a single executable.
5. **Locate the Executable**
After packaging, the executable (`Hardware_Information.exe`) will be located in the `dist/` directory.
- **Why** should I build it by using the provided `.spec` file?
- `.spec` is a file that stores all the settings used during development packaging, meaning this is how the executable in releases was built, however, as the user, you are free to do whatever.
