Currency Converter

Thanks to itsMalb for the original idea.

Convert monetary values between currencies with up-to-date exchange rates.

Requirements

Python File

Windows Systems

Optional executable file for Windows users. Python and the required packages are included in the executable.

  • 10 MB of free space for the executable
  • 12 MB of free space for temporary files

Usage

Download the source code, or optionally the executable if you're on Windows, from the latest release.

Select an input currency and an output currency, then click the "Convert" button. The currency converter will request exchange rates for the input currency, and save the exchange rates to a file rates.json. This file allows for caching and later offline use. Saved exchange rates are updated if they are older than 24 hours. You may delete the rates.json file if you wish, the program will just download the exchange rates again next time it is used.
