NormCap - Cross-platform utility to extract text from the screen
Packaging a Python application including dependencies for all platforms is another hard problem. For now, briefcase works best for me, but nuitka is a strong competitor.

Python to Windows Executable (py2exe, pyinstaller, cx_freeze or ?)
Another option for packaging Python apps is the BeeWare project Briefcase (https://github.com/beeware/briefcase). The only limitation that exists in your specific case is Tkinter - Briefcase doesn't support packaging Tkinter apps, but it does support Qt and Toga (BeeWare's GUI toolkit) Toga; Toga is design to be as approachable as Tkinter.

Creating Python Android/iOS Apps
I've found a lot of approaches and options, though Briefcase by BeeWare has been about the right level of sophistication for me.

Is there "Text Extractor" tool (from Windows Powertoys) equivalent in linux?
but i just found this https://github.com/dynobo/normcap from their readme, using tesseract as its backend, looks like nice replacement for text extractor.
