I am creating a Python application that uses multiple third party libraries. Since the libraries are installed on my computer, the script runs fine. However, how can I alter my script so that it will run on any computer (all major OS), even if the computer does not have the third party Python libraries installed?

For Windows/Mac, you can use Py2exe/Py2app. For Linux distros, you make packages.Blender– Blender2013-05-01 03:57:32 +00:00Commented May 1, 2013 at 3:57

Not exactly what I wanted. I want the script to stay a python script if at all possible so that it can be run on any device and run through a webpage.LucasS– LucasS2013-05-01 04:08:11 +00:00Commented May 1, 2013 at 4:08

By your comment:

It appears you want some way to host a python program online.
To do this, you need:
To know how to write Python that serves a website (see Django, Flask, CherryPy, etc...)
Some way to deploy said application to the web. An easy, free (<-- this is the keyword) way to deploy Python web apps is through using Heroku or some other free hosting site. Or you could always pay for hosting or host it yourself.

Hmm...I suppose this could work. I was originally thinking that my script would be able to be hosted through a webpage and be run locally on any device. But I suppose I can create multiple versions of the program, one for each OS I want to support and one to host through the web page of my site. Thanks.
