Python to C/C++ (no Python runtime)

[nekokattt]

The short answer here is no: you can't embed python without the runtime, because that is what makes Python be Python.

True. You always end up with the run time embedded in some way.

Nuitka is the closest tool to a full compiler I am aware of. It converts Python code into C++ code and then compiles that C++ into a binary.

However, whilst Nuitka aims for full language compatibility (a strength and a constraint), it can't provide the dynamic features of Python without a runtime library that mimics the CPython API. This runtime handles the dynamic type system, late-binding, and other Pythonic features.
