Hi,

Firstly thanks for all your work on this, it is a fantastic tool and I would love to incorporate it in the work I do.

This is more a piece of feedback rather than an issue.

The biggest challenge here is the usability for chemists. Is there a plan to build a windows executable?

Although it's nice to be able to do all the other model building and running reinvent in situ what I really want is for chemists to be able to give me feedback.

For that to happen I would need a windows executable as many are unfamiliar with linux or python environments on windows, simply to get enough uptake to collect reasonable data set sizes.

Many thanks, Alex

Hi Alex,

thanks for your nice feedback. We have tried building an executable, however, sofar we have run into many issues that we were not able to resolve. But I agree an executable would drastically improve accessibility

Best, Janosch
