Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Underappreciated Challenges with Python Packaging
The approach I prefer is to not mess with setuptools etc at all in the first place, and simply make a nice executable package.

How to create a Python package in 2022
The title should be: How to create a "Python DISTRIBUTION package".
The term "python package" means something entirely different (or at the very least is ambiguous in a pypi/distribution context).
To add to the confusion, creating a totally normal, runnable python package in a manner that makes it completely self-contained such that it can be "distributed" in a standalone manner, while still being a totally normal boring python package, is also totally possible (if not preferred, in my view).

Show HN: Hatch 1.0.0 – Modern, extensible Python project management
Shameless plug: I use my own template, which organises things as runnable projects.
https://github.com/tpapastylianou/self-contained-runnable-py...
It serves my purposes very well (which is creating projects that represent standalone experiments).
Sharing in case someone else here finds it useful.
More recently I've modified this a bit to also generate nice html reports straight from the __main__.py file, independently of the underlying python code, and use this as lab books (where each lab book contains a single analysis and its report). I'll upload this template separately when I find the time.

Python Is Portable
This is a good place to mention https://nuitka.net/ which aims to compile python programs into standalone binaries.

We are under DDoS attack and we do nothing
For Python, you could make a proper deployment binary using Nuitka (in standalone mode – avoid onefile mode for this). I'm not pretending it's as easy as building a Go executable: you may have to do some manual hacking for more unusual unusual packages, and I don't think you can cross compile. I think a key element you're getting at is that Go executables have very few dependencies on OS packages, but with Python (once you've sorted the actual Python dependencies) you only need the packages used for manylinux [2], which is not too onerous.

Faster Blogging: A Developer's Dream Setup
glee is rich in blogging features but has some drawbacks. One of the main drawbacks is its compatibility with multiple operating systems and system architectures. We lost one potential customer due to glee incompatibility in macOS. Another major issue is the deployment time. We built the first version of glee entirely in Python and used nuitka, nuitka compiles Python programs into a single executable binary file. We need to create three separate stages for creating executable binaries for Windows, Mac, and Linux in deployment, and it takes around 20 minutes to complete.

Python 3.13 Gets a JIT
There is already an AOT compiler for Python: Nuitka[0]. But I don't think it's much faster.
And then there is mypyc[1] which uses mypy's static type annotations but is only slightly faster.
And various other compilers like Numba and Cython that work with specialized dialects of Python to achieve better results, but then it's not quite Python anymore.

Ask HN: How does Nuitka (Python compiler) work?
Hi HN,
Has anyone explored Nuitka [1] and developed understanding from a blank slate?
Is there any toy version of this, so that one can start playing with the language translation concepts?
Is there any underlying theory/inspiration upon which this project is built?
Are there any similar projects, in say other languages?

Why not tell people to “simply” use pyenv, poetry or anaconda
That's more of cultural problem in the Python community.
If I provide an end user software to my client written an Python (so not a backend, not a lib...), I will compile it with nuitka (https://github.com/Nuitka/Nuitka) and hide the stack trace (https://www.bitecode.dev/p/why-and-how-to-hide-the-python-st...) to provide a stand alone executable.
This means the users don't have to know it's made with Python or install anything, and it just works.
However, Python is not like Go or Rust, and providing such an installer requires more than work, so a huge part of the user base (which have a lot of non professional coders) don't have the skill, time or resources to do it.
And few people make the promotion of it.
I should write an article on that because really, nobody wants to setup python just to use a tool.

Is cython a safe option for obfuscate a python project?
As for a simpler option, you could use a "compiler": https://github.com/Nuitka/Nuitka

Extending web applications with WebAssembly and Python
> Your comment would make sense if Python code could be compiled into x86 or ARM assembly in the first place.
It can actually be compiled (or transpiled) into C code [1] with few limitations, so I can't see why not.
What are some alternatives?
hatch - Modern, extensible Python project management
PyInstaller - Freeze (package) Python programs into stand-alone executables
Poetry - Python packaging and dependency management made easy
pyarmor - A tool used to obfuscate python scripts, bind obfuscated scripts to fixed machine or expire obfuscated scripts.
pip-audit - Audits Python environments, requirements files and dependency trees for known security vulnerabilities, and can automatically fix them
PyOxidizer - A modern Python application packaging and distribution tool
tox-poetry-installer - A plugin for Tox that lets you install test environment dependencies from the Poetry lockfile
py2exe - modified py2exe to support unicode paths
false-positive-malware-reporting - Trying to release your software sucks, mostly because of antivirus false positives. I don't have an answer, but I do have a list of links to help get your code whitelisted.

ttkbootstrap - A supercharged theme extension for tkinter that enables on-demand modern flat style themes inspired by Bootstrap.
