🚀 Quick Start

Install:

pip install compylr

1. Select Target & Environment: At the top of any page, select the Python script you want to compile and the Python interpreter to run it with.
2. Configure Build Settings: Navigate through the sidebar sections (Compilation Mode, Output Settings, Windows Options, version metadata, Python flags, package inclusions, and plugins) to customize your build.
3. Manage Config Profiles:
   • Export: Click 💾 Export Config on the Build page to save your setup as a .comphylr file.
   • Load: Click 📂 Load Config on the Build page to restore all settings from a saved profile instantly.
