 # ## 🎁 Bonus
 #
-# You've now completed the diffraction data analysis part of the
-# DMSC Summer School.
-# To keep learning and exploring more features of the EasyDiffraction library,
-# visit the official tutorials page, where you'll find more examples:
-# https://docs.easydiffraction.org/lib/tutorials/
+# Congratulations — you've now completed the diffraction data analysis part of
+# the DMSC Summer School!
+#
+# If you'd like to keep exploring, the EasyDiffraction library offers many
+# additional tutorials and examples on the official documentation site:
+# 👉 https://docs.easydiffraction.org/lib/tutorials/
+#
+# Besides the Python package, EasyDiffraction also comes with a graphical
+# user interface (GUI) that lets you perform similar analyses without writing
+# code. To be fair, it's not *quite* feature-complete compared to the Python
+# library yet — but we're working on it! 🚧
+#
+# If you prefer a point-and-click interface over coding, the GUI provides a
+# user-friendly way to analyze diffraction data. You can download it as a
+# standalone application here:
+# 👉 https://easydiffraction.org
+#
+# We'd love to hear your feedback on EasyDiffraction — both the library and
+# the GUI! 💬
