You want it to work with minimal effort? Then forget about py2exe and
just distribute your .py files. WAY easier.
which then forces the work onto every other

different architecture or system it even gets
worse if you add in that they may need to figure
out how to get a C compiler installed and
available (if a bdist/wheel isn't available
because the developer couldn't figure out how
to generate one).
for a novice user who just wants to get
something done this isn't a very good solution.
a build farm for common architectures would
help a lot of developers avoid all this thrashing.
.py files work on any platform that supports Python: Windows, Linux,
MacOs, ...
How many platforms support .exe files that were compiled for Windows?
