+
+PyLintPro is a Gradio-based web application designed to help developers improve Python code by making it adhere to [Flake8](https://flake8.pycqa.org/) and [PEP 8](https://pep8.org/) standards. Simply paste your code or upload a `.py` file, and PyLintPro will return a linted version along with a detailed report of fixes. Whether you're working on personal projects or professional codebases, PyLintPro streamlines the process of cleaning and optimizing your Python code.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Code Linting**: Checks Python code against Flake8 rules to identify common issues such as style violations, potential bugs, and complexity problems.
+- **PEP 8 Compliance**: Ensures your code follows the PEP 8 style guide, improving readability and maintainability.
+- **File Upload Support**: Upload `.py` files and get the linted code and report back.
+- **Real-time Linting**: Paste code into the textbox for immediate feedback and a fixed version of your code.
+- **Customizable Linting Rules**: Choose which Flake8 rules to apply by selecting from a dropdown menu.
+- **Code Fixing with autopep8**: Automatically fix common style issues in your Python code using the `autopep8` tool.
+- **Linting Reports**: Get a detailed report on your code’s style issues, including statistics on what was fixed and what still needs attention.
+- **Minimalist, User-friendly Interface**: Powered by Gradio, with a clean and intuitive interface that’s easy to navigate.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+Before using PyLintPro, ensure you have the following installed:
+
+- **Python 3.9+**: PyLintPro works with Python 3.9 and above.
+- **Flake8**: A Python tool for enforcing PEP 8 coding style.
+- **autopep8**: A tool to automatically fix PEP 8 issues in Python code.
+
+### Installation
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+
+    ```bash
+    git clone https://github.com/canstralian/PyLintPro.git
+    cd PyLintPro
+    ```
+
+2. Install the required dependencies:
+
+    ```bash
+    pip install -r requirements.txt
+    ```
+
+3. Run the app locally:
+
+    ```bash
+    python app.py
+    ```
+
+4. Navigate to the local address in your browser (e.g., `http://127.0.0.1:7860`) to start linting your Python code.
+
+### Usage
+
+1. **Paste Code**: In the text input box, paste your Python code.
+2. **Upload File**: Click the "Upload Code File" button to select a `.py` file from your computer. The app will process the file and display the linted code.
+3. **Select Linting Rules**: Choose which Flake8 rules to apply by selecting from the provided list of common rules.
+4. **Submit**: Click the "Submit" button to run the linting process. The app will display:
+    - The **linted code** with improvements.
+    - A **linting report** showing the issues identified and fixed.
+
+### Example
+
+Here's an example of how to use the app:
+
+1. Paste this Python code into the input box:
+    ```python
+    import os
+    import sys
+    def main():
+    print('Hello World')
+    ```
+
+2. After clicking "Submit", the app will return the following linted version:
+    ```python
+    import os
+    import sys
+
+    def main():
+        print('Hello World')
+    ```
+
+   **Linting Report**:
+    - `E701`: Multiple statements on one line.
+    - `W292`: No newline at end of file.
+
+### Options & Customization
+
+- **Choose Linting Rules**: Select multiple Flake8 rules to customize which issues should be flagged. You can choose to ignore specific warnings such as line length issues (`E501`) or unused imports (`F401`).
+- **File Upload Support**: If you have an existing `.py` file, simply upload it, and the app will automatically lint the code.
+
+### Advanced Configuration
+
+PyLintPro also supports several advanced configurations:
+
+- **Ignore Specific Rules**: You can specify which Flake8 rules to ignore when running the linting process.
+- **Custom PEP 8 Guidelines**: If your project requires custom coding standards, you can configure PyLintPro to enforce those standards by modifying the `flake8` configuration file.
