PyOxidizer for Rust Developers

PyOxidizer is implemented in Rust. Binaries built with PyOxidizer are also built with Rust using standard Rust projects.

While the existence of Rust should be abstracted away from most users (aside from the existence of the install dependency and build output), a target audience of PyOxidizer is Rust developers who want to embed Python in a Rust project or Python developers who want to leverage more Rust in their Python applications.

Follow the links below to learn how PyOxidizer uses Rust and how Rust can be leveraged to build more advanced applications embedding Python.
