Note PySimpleGUI is now replaced by FreeSimpleGUI since PySimpleGUI is commercial only now, November 2025

Now August 2022 with flutter/dart stopwatch app, multilingual messages and python server! YMMV.

Python race-timer using NFC wristbands for informal running. Uses sqlite3 and pyscard. Three main scripts:
- register_runner.py to setup the NFC wristbands
- race_timing.py for race timing, will output a simple webpage when exiting
- utilities/create_results_matrix.py which creates a spreadsheet style html page for a data range of results.

Multilingual interface in v1 and code tree, small start up menu to choose language. Add a new language by adding a json file and modifying the menu.

The data directory contains race.db and sql contains sql to create the database.

This is very preliminary and YMMV. Testing with my running group over the next few weeks. See wiki for rough install instructions. Developed on Linux Mint.
