Congrats on making a small, useful, working tool! I like the minimalism. Maybe you should mention on your GitHub page that it is for Windows.
In the README: "Windows 10 or newer"

#12Can it easily record a square section of the screen without recording the full screen? Would be nice to have a program like that equivalent to screenshot tools like flameshot.
ShareX might be what you're looking for.

Adding it to the Post title would be great as well.

You might want to try ScreenToGif ( https://www.screentogif.com/ ) for Windows and Kap ( https://getkap.co/ ) for macOS.
screentogif is my go-to for windows for anything recording

Yes but it's buried down in the `Build` instructions. It should be in the About section: "A simple recording program for Windows with the ability to record screens and audio on your computer." (emphasis mine)

I think that part is assumed as Gnome/Linux and MacOSX have it built in?
