WinPython is a portable distribution of the Python programming language for Windows (https://winpython.github.io).
This is the winpython Python package, 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
- WinPython build toolchain
- make.py is the script used to build a WinPython distribution from (almost) scratch.
- Python3 >= 3.10
- installer can be 7-Zip or nothing (just .zip-it)
From the source package (see section 'Building dependencies'), you may install WinPython using the following commands:
python -m pip install flit
python -m flit build
python -m pip install --no-index --trusted-host=None --find-links=.dist winpython
But the easiest way to install the last stable release of WinPython is by using an executable installer: https://winpython.github.io/
