PyDeploy
PyDeploy is a simple tool designed to create executable (.exe) files from Python applications. Its main purpose is to help Python developers package their applications into standalone Windows executables that can run on user machines without requiring Python to be installed.
Key Features
- Quick EXE creation: Automatically bundles Python source code and dependencies into a single executable file.
- Windows-focused: Primarily targets Windows platform, with potential to extend support for other operating systems.
- User-friendly interface: Provides an easy-to-use GUI suitable for beginners and professional developers alike.
- Advanced options: Allows configuration of build parameters such as app icon, additional data files, output directory, and more.
- Compatibility with popular libraries: Supports most commonly used Python libraries for application development.
Benefits of Using PyDeploy
- Saves time: Minimizes manual steps in packaging Python applications.
- Simplifies distribution: Standalone EXE files can be shared with users who don’t have Python installed.
- Ensures stability: Helps applications run reliably on Windows machines without environment issues.
- Developer-friendly: Intuitive interface lets users build executables quickly without command-line usage.
Basic Usage
- Prepare your complete Python application source code.
- Open PyDeploy and select the main Python script.
- Configure options such as executable name, icon, and output folder.
- Click the Build button to generate the EXE file.
- Once finished, find the EXE in the output folder to run or distribute.
