This is the first part of the series where I write about things I learned while writing a desktop app. Creating a file that users could download in an expected file format.Turning it into a self-contained executable file that does not rely on having Python or other dependencies being installed.Looking native, presenting a GUI when clicked.While I was working on the Quaver Lyrics Finder project (it’s my first time writing Python, please be gentle), I wanted to make it into an easy-to-use program that most people to use.
