How to Use

1. Install Python.
   I'd recommend Python 3.12, but it will work in any recent Python version from 3.8 onwards. Make sure to check the "py launcher" checkbox when installing.
2. Download the release zip from the latest release and extract it.
   The whole program is contained in this folder. You may move it wherever you'd like.
3. Run launch.pyw.
   The first launch may take a little longer. If any errors occur, check the logs in the logs folder.
