Yeah, PyInstaller is the best thing out there if you need to bundle a complex Python app into an executable, with cx_Freeze not far behind.

But it's still considered challenging when you compare with any other compiled language, where you can get an executable out of the box. I ship Python desktop apps at work and it's remarkable how much code we accumulated over the years just to deal with the "interpreter in bundled/exe mode".
