After creating the enviroment on your project let's install the necessary packages.

To install those package open the terminal or command line and paste the code from below

pip install opencv-contrib-python

pip install numpy

pip install pandas

pip install Pillow

pip install pytest-shutil

pip install python-csv

pip install yagmail

[ **Notice: During the package installization, sometime it shows some error, to avoid those error you can install those packages as admin. ]

After creating the enviroment and installing the packages, open the IDE terminal/command line to run the program. Using the code below.

py main.py

Here is a demo to run the program. I'm Using the Pycharm IDE in my demo.

If you want to use it just follow the steps below.
