New Release of Nuitka Compiler for Python Scripts
The new version of the Nuitka compiler for broadcasting scripts in the Python language, Nuitka 1.6, is now available. The compiler represents the scripts in the C language, which can then be compiled into an executable file using Libpython to ensure maximum compatibility with CPYTHON. The project code is freely distributed under the Apache license.
Nuitka 1.6 provides complete compatibility with current Python issues, including Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3 – 3.11. Compiled scripts show a 335% performance improvement compared to CPython, according to tests.
The new version includes updates such as compatibility with the Python 3.11 branch, improvements to the testing tools, and the addition of an option to include metadata distribution. Other new features include an expanded Anti-Bloat plugin, optimization of performance and scalability, and improved determination of dependencies on the MacOS platform.
Additionally, the release includes a new utility tool called Nuitka-Watch, which aims to determine problematic issues of PYPI in test instruments. The compiler is also able to optimize the body of classes, and generate XML reports in a form suitable for subsequent comparison on different systems.
Developers can access the Nuitka 1.6 release on GitHub and begin leveraging the newest updates and optimizations to Python script compiling.
