Research direction
Review the existing GUI code to identify the entry point and dependencies (likely a Python GUI framework like Tkinter or PyQt). Examine other Dockerfiles in similar projects for patterns. Since no PRs or comments exist, focus on creating a minimal Dockerfile that installs the necessary system dependencies for the GUI and runs the application with X11 forwarding or a VNC server for headless environments.
