Easiest way to create stand alone application from python script

Question

I am a bit of a noob in this department, so I was wondering what is the easiest way (i.e. least amount of time and effort) to create a stand alone application from a python script.

Answer 1

An easy way to do so, in Windows, is to use Py2Exe, see this tutorial.

Answer 2

Since you've tagged your question [exe], I assume it is Windows-specific. Take a look at py2exe:

py2exe is a Python Distutils extension which converts Python scripts into executable Windows programs, able to run without requiring a Python installation.
