py2app is a setuptools extension that bundles Python scripts into macOS application bundles (.app). You write the app information and options in setup.py and run python setup.py py2app to create a standalone bundle that includes the Python interpreter and dependent modules. It is the counterpart of py2exe for Windows, and PyInstaller is often used to handle multiple operating systems with a single tool.
