python - Is it possible to generate an executable (.exe) of a jupyter-notebook?

Question

I wrote a code in python using jupyter notebook and i want to generate an executable of the program.

Answer 1

No, however it is possible to generate a .py script from .ipynb, which can then be converted to a .exe

With jupyter nbconvert (If you are using Anaconda, this is already included)

In the environment :

pip install nbconvert
jupyter nbconvert --to script my_notebook.ipynb

Will generate a my_notebook.py.

Then with Pyinstaller :

pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller my_notebook.py

You should now have a my_notebook.exe and dist files in your folder.
