 To quickly print new stuff on one of my printers, I am using the [OctoPrint](https://octoprint.org) integration of [PrusaSlicer](https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer).
 Unfortunately, it does not allow me to turn on the printers power supply using the Raspberry Pi.
 But it is possible to do that via the [OctoPrint REST API](https://docs.octoprint.org/en/master/api/index.html).
 Because of that, I wrote a small tool to trigger the power of my printers that lives in the system tray.
-It runs on Linux using the Python Qt5 bindings, but without much work it should be able to run on other platforms with PyQt5 as well.
+It runs on Linux using the Python Qt5 bindings, but it has been tested on Windows and should run on macOS as well.
