Overview
--------

WinPython is a portable distribution of the Python programming
language for Windows (https://winpython.github.io).

This is the `winpython` Python package, not the distribution itself.
It includes two main features:

WinPython Package Manager (WPPM)
a complementary tool to navigate provided package list or register WinPython
pip is the recommanded way to add or remove packages

WinPython build toolchain
make.py is the script used to
build a WinPython distribution from (almost) scratch.

Dependencies
------------

* Python3 >= 3.8

Requirements
------------

* NSIS (for icon shortcut creations, installer can be NSIS, INNO, 7-Zip, or nothing)

Installation
------------

From the source package (see section 'Building dependencies'), you may
install WinPython using the following commands:

**python -m pip install flit**

**python -m flit build**

**python -m pip install --no-index --trusted-host=None --find-links=.\dist winpython**

But the easiest way to install the last stable release of WinPython is
by using an executable installer: https://winpython.github.io/
