Convert Python to EXE and DLL

Simple Guide for Beginners

What is EXE?

EXE is a Windows executable file that runs your Python program without installing Python.

Convert Python to EXE

pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller --onefile yourfile.py

After running the command, go to the dist folder and run your .exe file.

What is DLL?

DLL is a library file used by other programs. Python can create a .pyd file which works like a DLL.

Convert Python to DLL (.pyd)

pip install cython

# setup.py
from setuptools import setup
from Cython.Build import cythonize

setup(ext_modules=cythonize("yourfile.py"))

# build
python setup.py build_ext --inplace

Important Note

.pyd file works with Python only. For C#, use Python.NET instead of converting to DLL.

Conclusion

Use EXE for running apps and use Python.NET for integration with C#.
