### Quick Installer
Use the automated installer to download SeedPass and its dependencies in one step.
The scripts also install the correct BeeWare backend for your platform automatically.
The scripts can also install the BeeWare backend for your platform when requested (use `-IncludeGui` on Windows).
If the GTK `gi` bindings are missing, the installer attempts to install the
necessary system packages using `apt`, `yum`, `pacman`, or Homebrew.

Before running the script, install **Python 3.11** or **3.12** from [python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/) and tick **"Add Python to PATH"**. You should also install the [Visual Studio Build Tools](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/) with the **C++ build tools** workload so dependencies compile correctly.
The Windows installer will attempt to install Git automatically if it is not already available. It also tries to install Python 3 using `winget`, `choco`, or `scoop` when Python is missing and recognizes the `py` launcher if `python` isn't on your PATH. If these tools are unavailable you'll see a link to download Python directly from <https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/>. When Python 3.13 or newer is detected without the Microsoft C++ build tools, the installer now attempts to download Python 3.12 automatically so you don't have to compile packages from source.
