[](https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/Gnome-TwoFactorAuth/releases)  # Gnome Authenticator

Two-factor authentication code generator for Gnome. Created with love using Python and Gtk.

### Dependecies - `Python 3.3+` - `Gtk 3.16+` - `meson` (works only with git version for now) - `ninja` - `pyotp` - `pyaml` - `Pillow` - `zbarlight` depends on `zbar` - `libzbar-dev` on Ubuntu - `zbar` on Arch - `gnome-keyring` - `gnome-screenshot`

_{PS: The application was only tested on Arch with Gtk 3.20+, but it should work nicely with older versions too. Keyboard shortcuts widget won't be shown for older versions.}
