Comment on LPython: Novel, Fast, Retargetable Python Compiler

Comments

You can install it using Conda

On the risk of starting a holywar: why.

It was the easiest for us to deliver a binary that works on Linux, macOS and Windows. Others can then use this binary as a reference to package LPython into other distributions. You can also install LPython from source, but it's harder than just using the binary that we built correctly (with all optimizations on, etc.).

Miniconda can be nice sharing an environment around especially with Apple Silicon as one of targets.
