Project Overview

GENAI_P4_LANGUAGE_TRANSLATOR is a lightweight desktop application built using Python’s Tkinter GUI toolkit. It enables users to select an English .docx file, choose a target language, and receive translated text displayed directly in the app’s interface. It uses the OpenAI API for translation.

Key Features:

• Easy .docx file selection via GUI
• Supports translation from English into any selected target language
• Displays translated text in-app with a single button click
• Minimal installation footprint—no need for web servers
