The quickstart instructions are:

• If you're on Windows:
  • grab the file at the bottom
  • launch it
  • Click on the config button to fill out the config
  • Hit run and it will populate the folder you picked in config with the data you can use in OBS/XSplit for your overlay
• If you're on Linux:
  • You can use PyPi to install eldonationtracker
  • You can git clone this repo, install the requirements and go from there
  • If you don't need the GUI you can use Docker or Podman with a command that looks like: (check version as there may be a delay between newest version and creation of a container)

  docker run -it -v ./extralifedonationtracker:/root/.config/extralifedonationtracker -v ./testoutput:/root/output djotaku/eldonationtracker:latest
  
  # or
  
   podman run -it -v ./extralifedonationtracker:/root/.config/extralifedonationtracker:Z -v ./testoutput:/root/output:Z djotaku/eldonationtracker:latest

In the 11 or so years (since at least 2015) I've been working on this code, I've written nearly all the code on my own. The only AI I've used was:

• recently to move the code from PyQT for the GUI to using Pyside6 - which was mostly about figuring out which function signatures had changed - the functionality was identical.
• Part of the 9.1.0 release to find a bug I was having trouble finding on my own. I still did quite a bit of heavy lifting on those changes.
