Nuitka Downloads

General

Thank you for downloading Nuitka. Please consider becoming a Nuitka commercial subscriber.

Nuitka Standard

The standard edition bundles your code, dependencies and data into a single executable if you want. It also does acceleration, just running faster in the same environment, and can produce extension modules as well. It is freely distributed under the Apache license.

Get Nuitka Standard

Nuitka Commercial

The commercial edition additionally protects your code, data and outputs, so that users of the executable cannot access these. This a private repository of plugins that you pay to get access to. Additionally, you can purchase priority support.

The current release is Nuitka 2.5.1. Stable releases are supported with hot fixes, indicated by the last of the 4 digits.

Note

Stable releases are supposed to work for you. Develop releases are snapshots of the current develop branch in git, usually also relatively stable, but also rarely break.

Note

During releases package builds can lag behind for a couple of days.

PyPI

There is Nuitka on PyPI as well. So you can install with pip as follows.

Note

The stable version from PyPI can be installed via pip, and has no dependencies on any package, and is a source package, so you will have an easy time, even on e.g. Windows to use it.

# Stable version
python -m pip install -U nuitka

# Develop version
python -m pip install -U "https://github.com/Nuitka/Nuitka/archive/develop.zip"

Note

Do this with the python binary, you want to be compiled against.

Packages

Windows

The MSI installers are discontinued as Python has deprecated their support for them, as well as Windows 10 making it harder to users to install them. Using the PyPI installation is recommended on Windows.
