Research direction

Start by locating the Python script that produces QCFIT and the existing Windows .exe workflow or build instructions. Determine how the project currently packages the script, then build a macOS .app and update the Windows executable for the current QCFIT version. Verify that both generated executables launch and provide the expected QCFIT behavior.
