Feedback to author: The diagram and explanation took a beat longer than normal to scan, since this buries a bit that it's not about the beautiful source control system called fossil shipped as a composition of modules: https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki Great diagrams, so of course that's the first thing a reader will skim. People biuld things based on git all the time, the diagram looks like... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
There are (all too rare) tools that back those objects with git as well. And there's always fossil ... https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki But it's not git. :-(. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
I don't think git should be the infrastructure of collaboration. It's good for long-lived artifacts, but isn't good for discussion, for rights management, ... Fossil (https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki) is of course better, but if git must remain, I believe the base infrastructure should be the mailing list. Patches, branches and releases can live inside a mailing list, it is naturally built for... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

> To make things more complicated, they also use their a relatively niche version management system instead of git. Which would complicate making contributions (if they accepted them). The Fossil VCS actually has a page explaining why it was created, instead of just using Git: https://sqlite.org/whynotgit.html Honestly, a lot of those points make sense, especially how Git is perhaps a little bit more complex and... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
Looking forward toward somebody hooking together Python in APE [0], something like pex [1]/shiv[2]/pyinstaller[3], and the pants build system [4] to have a toolchain which spits out single-file python executables with baked-in venv and portable across mainstream OSes with native (or close enough) performance. 0 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40040342 2 - https://shiv.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ 3 -... - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago
Normally games made with pygame are not playable from the web. They can only be run from the command line or use PyInstaller or cx_Freeze to create a standalone executable. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago
I have found PyInstaller [1] to work well for packaging everything into a single ZIP file that unzips to a folder with an executable binary and all accompanying files (or even a single EXE file that self-extracts when run, but that increases startup time). It knows how to package PyQt and its associated Qt libraries (or PySide, which I actually prefer) so that they can be shipped with your application. [1... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
PyInstaller is the main way to build a Python executable. I'd recommenced bundling your program in the default one-folder mode and uploading it to Itch. Source: about 1 year ago
There are tools, not from Python Software Foundation (or officially supported by them), such as Pyinstaller, that will try to produce a single executable file that you can distribute for people to install. Of course, this would depend on the controls on the end user devices allowing such an installation. There can be some compatibility challenges, but if you are using reasonably standard Python it shall probably... Source: over 1 year ago
