converting a python gui application to a standalone executable (.exe) and then creating a setup wizard can be achieved using several tools. in this tutorial, we’ll go through the steps to convert a simple tkinter gui application into an executable using `pyinstaller`, and then create an installer with `inno setup`.

step 1: create a simple python gui application

first, let’s create a simple tkinter application. save the following code in a file named `app.py`.



step 2: install pyinstaller

you will need `pyinstaller` to convert your python script into an executable. you can install it using pip:



step 3: create the executable

navigate to the directory where your `app.py` file is located and run the following command:



`--onefile`: bundles everything into a single executable.
`--windowed`: prevents a console window from appearing when you run the gui app.

after running this command, you will find the executable in the `dist` folder created by pyinstaller.

step 4: test the executable

navigate to the `dist` folder and run `app.exe` to ensure that it works as expected. if everything is correct, you should see your gui application, and clicking the button should display the message box.

step 5: create a setup wizard with inno setup

now, let’s create a setup wizard for your application. first, download and install *inno setup* from [here](jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php).

after installing inno setup, create a new script using the script wizard or write your own. here is a simple example script for our application:



step 6: compile the inno setup script

1. open inno setup and load your script or create a new one.
2. click on "compile" in the toolbar.
3. after compilation, you will find `mysimpleappsetup.exe` in the specified output directory.

step 7: test the installer

run the installer `mysimpleappsetup.exe`. follow the installation steps, and once installed, check if the application is added to the start menu or desk ...
