:ENVIRONMENT SETUP:

---

1. Clone the Repository to your machine.
2. Create a Virtual Environment using virtualenv or pipenv.
3. pip3 install -r Requirements.txt to install the required packages automatically.
4. Make sure the MySQL Service is running and change the YOUR_PASSWORD in the files with the password and the YOUR_USERNAME with the username of your local SQL server.
5. python3 Main.py to see if the program is running correctly and is able to connect to MySQL Server. (Feel free to ask for help if you face any error)

NOTE: Step 2 is optional but highly recommended to avoid conflicting packages.

NOTE: After Cloning the Repo rename the README.md to README.txt in order for the About() Function in /core/Other.py to work.
