WinPython tools

Overview

WinPython is a portable distribution of the Python programming language for Windows: https://winpython.github.io

This is the wppm Python package and build toolchain repository, not the distribution itself. It includes two main features:

WinPython Package Manager (WPPM): a complementary tool to navigate provided packages, install packages from included Wheelhouse, or register WinPython. pip is the recommanded way to add or remove packages otherwise
WinPython build toolchain (historic): generate_a_winpython_distropy_meta.bat with a toml file is the toolchain used to build a WinPython distribution from (almost) scratch.
WinPython build toolchain via Github action (news of 2025-08-24): fork the project and run github action like github_workflows_build-all_3.14.yml for python-3.14 you can modify the list of wheels with hash to your preference
WinPython set of Wheel: You can get also the equivalent of the WinPython distribution by using one of the provided pylock.toml or by using provided requirements-with-hash.txt until pip does support pylock.toml files

Dependencies

Python3 >= 3.10

Requirements

installer can be 7-Zip or nothing (just .zip-it)

Wppm build

From the source package (see section ‘Building dependencies’), you may build WPPM using the following commands:

python -m pip install flit
python -m flit build

wppm package is now build and published via github action build_wppm_prod_publish.yml

Winpython Distribution wheels installation

To only install the wheels assembled per WinPython Distribution, you may

python -m pip install --no-deps --require-hashes https://github.com/winpython/winpython/releases/download/16.6.20250620final/requir.64-3_13_5_0slim.txt

A pylock file is also available, when you package manager can handle it

https://github.com/winpython/winpython/releases/download/16.6.20250620final/pylock.64-3_13_5_0slim.toml

But the easiest way to install the last stable release of WinPython is by using a zipped distribution with or without auto-extractor: https://winpython.github.io/
