Feet has replaced its dependency on PyInstaller with a custom Rust bootloader.

The bootloader is used exactly the same as the previous feet.exe, but is no longer produced by PyInstaller. Instead, it is a self-extracting EXE that creates a feet/ runtime directory, only if one does not already exist, and proceeds to run the Feet commands you invoke. The unpack is only one-time, for performance reasons. This includes a full build of Python. Work will come in the future to reduce the size of this build, but priority for now is to run any program someone wants to use.

This new version still supports the run, library, and shell commands.

To use Feet, download feet-0.1.0.zip and extract the feet.exe file. Put it in a directory with your main.py script. If you need any Python libraries, like pygame or ppb, install them like ./feet.exe library ppb

Just double-click the feet.exe file to run your game or app!
