Comment on Compile Python applications into stand-alone executables

Comments

Soon after going through the python environment selection dance (pyenv fwiw, although sometimes conda), I went through the python binary tool selection dance and ended up on pyinstaller.

However I eventually abandoned hope that I was on a fruitful path, and changed course for web server land, embarking on the python web framework selection dance.

Did you do the Python version selection dance before that though? 2.7/3.6/3.8/3.9 :D

2 to 3 did come up at one point, yes. At the time I chose 2 but nothing much came of the choice since I didn't continue with python at the time, and nothing much came from what I was working on either.

The updates to 3 have a bit more impact now that I'm doing most of my work in python. Some of the features dropping seem too cool to not update.
