1. Navigate to the project folder where you cloned the repository.

2. Locate the executable file named `notepad.exe`.

3. Double-click on the `notepad.exe` file to launch the Notepad application.

## NOTE

To ensure compatibility and successful execution on macOS and Linux, you may need to:

- Install the necessary dependencies: Qt framework, Qt Creator (IDE), and any additional libraries or packages required by the calculator application.

- Modify the project configuration: Make any required adjustments to the project settings, such as paths, compiler options, or environment variables, to match the target platform (macOS or Linux).

- Build the application: Use the appropriate build tools and commands to compile the code and generate the executable file for the target platform.

- Test the application: Run the compiled executable on macOS or Linux to verify its functionality and ensure it performs as expected.
