Need requirements.txt File

Please make requirements.txt file for all dependencies.

Create a Data Visualization Feature

It would be great if the app had the capability of visually representing the time tracking data. I implemented this feature in Pull Request #3

Looking for "settings.json" in nested time-tracker folder by default

Upon initial run, the script is looking for the settings.json file in the nested time-tracker folder.

By default, this settings.json file is in the mail folder.

In the readme of this repo, there is a task "create binary version". This involves a lot of nuance, and will open up having to deal with certificates so that it works properly and is not flagged by antivirus. I propose creating a pyw, to serve in the interim while there is no binary. A pyw to launch the GUI is a file that can simply be double-clicked to start the app. It runs a python instance without a console terminal.
