Note on Virus Detection: Executables created with tools like PyInstaller are sometimes flagged by antivirus software. This can happen because the executable bundles Python and its libraries. The code is open-source, so you can inspect it yourself. If you encounter a warning, you may need to add an exception in your antivirus software.
