This application allows digitizing paper ECG image scans, such as this one:
To produce digital signals, like these:

Follow the set-up instructions:
You should now have:
- Python 3.6.7
- Virtual environment
- All required packages
Reminder: Make sure your virtual environment is running! (this will happen automatically if you are using pyenv)
You can now run:
fbs run
Or, on Windows, you may need to run:
py -3.6 -m fbs run
This will start the interpreted version of the project.
In order to create an executable that can be distributed, run:
fbs build
Or, on Windows, you may need to run:
py -3.6 -m fbs build
This only builds an executable targeting the current OS (i.e., virtualization or multiple machines is necessary to produce builds for each OS).
View the issues list to see what tasks are available to work on.
The project currently requires Python 3.6.7 to work with fbs (see 3.7 support issue).

- Dark mode doesn't work on macOS when
frozen.
