## Acknowledgment
This 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.
ChatGPT 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.

## 🛠️ Build as Windows Executable
To create a standalone **Windows executable**, use:
```sh
pyinstaller --onefile --windowed --icon=logo.ico --add-data "logo.ico;." main.py
```
- `--onefile` → Creates a single EXE file.
- `--windowed` → Hides the console window.
- `--icon=logo.ico` → Sets the app icon for the EXE.
- `--add-data "logo.ico;."` → Ensures logo.ico is included in the package.
