# Text Encoding Application
This is a Python-based desktop application that allows users to input text and encode it using various algorithms, such as Base64, MD5, SHA-256, and AES. The application features a graphical user interface (GUI) built using Tkinter.
## Features
- **User-Friendly GUI**: Enter text and select encoding algorithms easily.
- **Multiple Algorithms**: Supports Base64 encoding, MD5 and SHA-256 hashing, and AES encryption.
- **Copy to Clipboard**: Encoded or hashed results can be copied directly to the clipboard.
- **Error Handling**: Includes basic error handling for invalid input.

## Installation
### Prerequisites
- Python 3.6+
- Virtual environment (recommended)
### Steps
1. **Clone the repository** :
```bash
git clone https://github.com/YashitaCodes/encode-me.git
cd encode-me
```
2. **Create a virtual environment** (optional but recommended):
```bash
python -m venv venv
```
3. **Activate the virtual environment**:
- **Windows**:
```bash
venv\Scripts\activate
```
- **Mac/Linux**:
```bash
source venv/bin/activate
```
4. **Install dependencies**:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
5. **Run the application**:
```bash
python main.py
```
## Usage
1. Launch the application by running `main.py`.
2. Enter the text you want to encode.
3. Select the encoding algorithm (Base64, MD5, SHA-256, AES).
4. Click "Encode" to get the result.
5. You can copy the encoded result to your clipboard using the "Copy to Clipboard" button.
## Future Enhancements
- Add support for more encoding algorithms.
- Include options for file encoding.
- Save encoded results to a file.
