Packaging Python programs in APK format

    On Habré , the use of SL4A (Android Scripting) was repeatedly discussed - an interpreter that runs Python, Perl, JRuby, JS, PHP, and other scripts for Android. However, in order for these scripts to work, you need to install SL4A on the phone. Another drawback is that you cannot pack the application in .apk format.

    Kivy developers have made a convenient tool that helps you create a ready-made .apk with all the necessary Python modules and libraries and your application inside. OpenGL ES 2.0 is used to create the GUI.

    See Python for Android on github for instructions on creating a Python distribution and compiling an APK based on it.
