Create a .exe File with GUI using PyCharm, PyQt6 & PyInstaller
In this tutorial, we will learn how to create a .exe file with a GUI using PyCharm, PyQt6, and PyInstaller.
Step 1: Set up the environment
Make sure you have PyCharm installed on your machine. You will also need to install PyQt6 and PyInstaller. You can do this using pip:
pip install pyqt6 pyinstaller
Step 2: Create the GUI
Open PyCharm and create a new Python file. Write the code for your GUI using PyQt6. Here is an example code snippet:
import sys
from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QPushButton
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
window = QWidget()
window.setWindowTitle('PyQt6 Example')
window.setGeometry(100, 100, 300, 200)
button = QPushButton('Click me!', window)
button.setGeometry(100, 50, 100, 50)
window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec())
Step 3: Convert the .py file to .exe
Open a terminal in PyCharm and navigate to the directory where your Python file is saved. Use PyInstaller to convert the .py file to a .exe file:
pyinstaller --onefile yourfile.py
Step 4: Test the .exe file
You should now have a .exe file in the dist directory. Test the file to make sure the GUI is working correctly.
Congratulations! You have successfully created a .exe file with a GUI using PyCharm, PyQt6, and PyInstaller.
I can follow it but some audio would have been nice.
