6 essential libraries for every Python developer
Whether you're compiling Python for speed, building native UIs for Python desktop apps, or refining existing Python code, these Python projects have you covered
Python has seen wide adoption across industries and disciplines by dint of being easy to work with. But it has also been aided by a wealth of third-party projects—libraries, add-ons, and complementary development efforts—that extend the language to an ever widening range of use cases.
#PyPy
#CFFI(C Foreign Function Interface library)
#PyInstaller
#PBR(Python Build Reasonableness)
#WxPython
#Mypy

Creating an Executable from a Python Script
Python is one of my favorite programming languages. That being said, if you've ever had to deploy an application written in Python then you know just how painful it can be.
#PyInstaller
#pytest: helps you write better programs
a mature full-featured Python testing tool
runs on Posix/Windows, Python 2.6-3.5, #PyPy and (possibly still) Jython-2.5.1
free and open source software, distributed under the terms of the MIT license
well tested with more than a thousand tests against itself
strict backward compatibility policy for safe pytest upgrades
comprehensive online and PDF documentation
many third party plugins and builtin helpers,
used in many small and large projects and organisations
comes with many tested examples

#wxPython is a #GUI toolkit for the Python programming language. It allows Python programmers to create programs with a robust, highly functional graphical user interface, simply and easily. It is implemented as a Python extension module (native code) that wraps the popular wxWidgets cross platform GUI library, which is written in C++.

Description
#wxGlade is a #GUI#designer written in Python with the popular GUI toolkit #wxPython, that helps you create wxWidgets/wxPython user interfaces. At the moment it can generate Python, C++, Perl, Lisp and XRC (wxWidgets' XML resources) code.
As you can guess by the name, its model is Glade, the famous GTK+/GNOME GUI builder, with which wxGlade shares the philosophy and the look & feel (but not a line of code).
It is not (and will never be) a full featured IDE, but simply a "designer": the generated code does nothing apart from displaying the created widgets. If you are looking for a complete IDE, maybe Eric Python IDE, PyCharm, Code::Blocks or one of the many other IDE is the right tool.

#PyInstaller is a program that #freezes (#packages) Python programs into #stand_alone#executables, under Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solaris and AIX. Its main advantages over similar tools are that PyInstaller works with Python 2.7 and 3.3—3.5, it builds smaller executables thanks to transparent compression, it is fully multi-platform, and use the OS support to load the dynamic libraries, thus ensuring full compatibility.
