How to Cross-Compile a Python Script as an Executable for Windows, Mac, and Linux

<p>Hello, my name is Leah and I am a self-taught machine learning engineer with 10 years of experience of&nbsp;<strong>programming in Python</strong>. I want to give my fellow&nbsp;<strong>Python developers</strong>&nbsp;a small tutorial of how to&nbsp;<strong>cross-compile</strong>&nbsp;<strong>Python</strong>&nbsp;<strong>scripts</strong>&nbsp;into an executable for&nbsp;<strong>Windows, Mac, and Linux</strong>.</p> <h2>Choosing Your Platform and Audience</h2> <p>The first thing you need to do when thinking about building a software like this, or any other software for that matter is to figure out what platform(s) you want to release your software on.&nbsp;<strong>Code</strong>&nbsp;is written differently from &mdash; say&nbsp;<strong>Windows vs. Linux</strong>. To make your&nbsp;<strong>Python code</strong>&nbsp;compatible on&nbsp;<strong>Windows</strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Mac, and Linux</strong>&nbsp;you will have to use&nbsp;<strong>PyInstaller</strong>&nbsp;to compile the&nbsp;<strong>Python code</strong>&nbsp;into an&nbsp;<strong>executable</strong>. You need to install&nbsp;<strong>PyInstaller</strong>&nbsp;by using the pip command.</p> <p><a href="https://tibbetsai.medium.com/how-to-cross-compile-a-python-script-as-an-executable-for-windows-mac-and-linux-d17d285a0f3"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
