Using Cython to make a Python executable (and why standalone Python apps are tricky projects)

InfoWorld | Jun 14, 2021

Can you take a Python script and turn it into a standalone executable? Sort of! The Python compiler Cython can be used to do something like this, but it's a little trickier than it might seem. We'll explore how to do this in this video, and use that to walk through all the reasons why making a standalone app from a Python script is a complex project. For the code used in this project, see this Github repository: https://github.com/syegulalp/cython-exe-demo For more on Cython, see our other article: https://www.infoworld.com/article/3250299/what-is-cython-python-at-the-speed-of-c.html
