PyInstaller is described as 'Program that freezes (packages) Python programs into stand-alone executables, under Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solard AIX' and is an app in the development category. There are six alternatives to PyInstaller for Windows, Linux and Mac. The best PyInstaller alternative is nuitka, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like PyInstaller are py2exe, cx_Freeze, Shed Skin and bbfreeze.
Nuitka is a Python compiler.
It's fully compatible with Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5.
You feed it your Python app, it does a lot of clever things, and spits out an executable or extension module.
Shed Skin is an experimental compiler, that can translate pure, but implicitly statically typed Python (2.4-2.6) programs into optimized C++. It can generate stand-alone programs or extension modules that can be imported and used in larger Python programs.
bbfreeze creates stand-alone executables from python scripts. It's similar in purpose to the well known py2exe for windows, py2app for OS X, PyInstaller and cx_Freeze (in fact ancient versions were based on cx_Freeze.
