Deploying Commercial PyQt5 Applications露
Deploying commercial PyQt5 applications can be a complicated process for a number of reasons:
It is usually better not to rely on pre-requisite packages being already installed on the user鈥檚 system. This means that as well as your application code, you also need to include the Python interpreter, the standard library, third-pary packages and extension modules, and Qt itself.
Some target platforms (iOS for example) have restrictions on how an application is built in order for it to be included in app stores.
It is necessary to discourage users from accessing the underlying PyQt5 modules for themselves. A user that used the modules shipped with your application to develop new applications would themselves be considered a developer and would need their own commercial PyQt5 license.
The recommended solution to all of these issues is to use pyqtdeploy.
