0:00 Day 3, what you're going to do is you're going to package up your app, so you're going to install PyInstaller, and you're going to run this
0:07 build.spec, so the way to get started with these is to just copy one, so here I've linked to the one that I used for my demos.
0:14 You can take this and just change it ever so slightly, so here's where I specify the name, here's where I specify the name of the sort of entry point,
0:24 the main Python program we're going to run. I think those are the only two things you need to change, right, so take this, put it there,
0:32 and then just after you've installed PyInstaller, you're going to run this line a little bit later. In distribution app name, you should have either
0:39 an exe or a .app or, you name it. Right, on Linux, you'll have a Linux binary that you can run. Zip it up and run it.
0:48 I hope you really enjoyed this experience building simple, fire and forget, GUI applications in Python.
0:55 When you're done, as usual, share with the world all the fun and joy of what you've had building this thing,
1:01 and I hope you have a great time and get to it.
