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.
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 2.5.7. 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.

Note
The source archives can be used directly after unpacking, simply
start with python bin/nuitka --help
and read README.pdf
or
README.rst
to get started. Take especially care to read the User
Manual, such that you don’t go on a wrong track.
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.
