I have built a python command prompt program that I would like to export so that when an icon is clicked, it will automatically run, much like an app, but I have never seen an app that runs in the terminal. Should I try to make it an app and if so, how is this done? (Specifically for Mac)

If your script is small then the python docs indicate that the "Build Applet" tool might do the needful. See paragraph 4.5 of this link.

If you don't want a standalone app, just run a python script by clicking an icon, you can make a simple bash script to do it.
Here is a simple tutorial on that.

If you're talking about packaging your python script into a standalone application for Mac, you can use py2app
Link Here: https://pythonhosted.org/py2app/
You basically just write a python script, and then use this to help package it.
I hope this helped!
