• Nuitka

  94 10,744 10.0 Python

  Nuitka is a Python compiler written in Python. It's fully compatible with Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, and 3.11. You feed it your Python app, it does a lot of clever things, and spits out an executable or extension module.

• pants

  35 3,100 9.8 Python

  The Pants Build System

  

Well not quite FROM scratch (you still need an interpreter installed) but you can use pex to package up executables into distributable “binaries” prepackaged with a venv and all your deps. Bonus points for using pants to manage it all.

• Poetry

  377 29,483 9.7 Python

  Python packaging and dependency management made easy

  

The main point of contention seems to be PEP 631's dependency specification. However, I am not sure what exact problems Poetry has with it. There's a discussion here.
