This is an alarm clock made using the PySimpleGUI library. This is one of my first projects built for a GUI.

My motivation for this project was to build an alarm clock with some/most of the functionality one would expect from a regular alarm clock app. I wanted to learn how to structure a python project, import from submodules, etc. Additionally, I wanted to learn how to build a GUI, so I decided to start with something that most people use on a daily basis.

Ability to customize alarms, which includes:

• Alarm tones
• Renaming an alarm
• Selecting days alarm plays
• Toggle alarm on/off

The time can also be formatted using the format codes in the datetime module, described here

To install dependencies:

pip install /path/to/alarmClock

Next, open alarm clock app using:

python /path/to/alarmClock/cli.py

I tried to structure this project in a logical and intuitive manner, although I imagine that the organizational system and the code contained within are a nightmare to more experienced programmers. I would love to hear your feedback, questions or concerns regarding this project.
