py2exe is a tool that converts Python scripts into Windows executables (.exe). It bundles the interpreter, required modules, and DLLs together so the program can run on Windows PCs without Python installed, and it supports console programs, GUI programs, and Windows services. It is the counterpart of py2app for macOS, and PyInstaller, which supports multiple platforms together, is widely used as an alternative.
