For building the app from the source code your self you need to do the next steps:
- First go to the latest release page. [Here](https://github.com/Dtar380/WorkspaceAutomation/releases/latest)
- Then download the `source.zip` file and unzip the file on a custom directory.
- Now make sure you're running on python 3.12.4 (run `python --version`)
- After that install the required packages running `python -m pip install -r requirements_dev.txt`.
- At last run `python -m pip install -e .` inside the directory of the source.

```{warning}
Do not errase or modify the code form the source folder as the python package has been installed locally and it is running from that source code.
