Improve UI

[the-ethan-hunt]

The UI is great but we need a prettier and better UI. Creative coders are welcome to solve this issue

[arunikayadav42]

Can I get started with this issue :)

[the-ethan-hunt]

Sure! Assigned to @arunikayadav42

[Pratik-Sanghani]

On which Platform you are going to work ?? @arunikayadav42

[arunikayadav42]

actually I have little idea as of now but I can sure use some help :)

[the-ethan-hunt]

Feel free to ask for help @arunikayadav42

[arunikayadav42]

If you could tell me where do I start from?

[the-ethan-hunt]

If you might have noticed, B.E.N.J.I. looks like a small bar on the desktop with a nerdy look. Can we have somewhat 'science-themed' look?

[arunikayadav42]

I have a doubt..does benji run with python2 or python3 ?

[the-ethan-hunt]

B.E.N.J.I. runs on Python 3. :sweat_smile:

[arunikayadav42]

ok ....

[arunikayadav42]

when i try to run benji.py under the linux folder it gives me error module not found .Can somebody help me?

[arunikayadav42]

Also while running the benji.py file we have to install a number of packages like wikipedia and stuff so can we not improve the content of the contribution.md file?Can I raise an issue regarding the same?

@arunikayadav42 The dependencies to be installed are specified in the requirements.txt file. All you need to do is run

pip install -r requirements-linux.txt

This will install all necessary dependencies. :smile: You can find this file in the Linux folder. This will resolve all module not found errors.

[arunikayadav42]

Cool Thanks :) but don't you think including it in the contribution.md would be better for contributors?

[arunikayadav42]

@the-ethan-hunt what kind of look do you want exactly?

[arunikayadav42]

@kb-studios it's finally running yeayyy :D

[arunikayadav42]

also when I run it on linux I get the following error :

[arunikayadav42]

Can I open an issue and work on it too?

[arunikayadav42]

Also it how do we shut it down?

[arunikayadav42]

Also it does not close,no matter what we do, after we force stop the execution of benji.py

[the-ethan-hunt]

@arunikayadav42 a few things for you:

• Please do not post unnecessary messages like "it's finally running yeayyy". For such messages, markdown has a format.
• Before writing a message for having an error here, please search your issue through Google/StackOverFlow or people on Slack. Please don't clutter the space here.
• Opening an issue is easy. Recognizing whether the issue is needed is tough. You have to do the latter.
• I suggest you to read this wiki for more stuff.

[arunikayadav42]

I guess I did search stackoverflow a lot and only then posted my query here.Also benji did function absurdly on linux ubuntu LTS 16.04 ...not at all like the way it is shown in the gif.THe gif for linux is actually the way things work in windows I guess.Hence I thought a lot of issues can be opened.

[arunikayadav42]

@the-ethan-hunt can I use pyqt4?

[the-ethan-hunt]

You are free to use any package; provided that it beautifies the assistant more.

[angelapwen]

I will work on this issue using the Tkinter package for now 😃
