PyInstaller reads a Python script written by you. It analyzes your code to discover every other module and library your script needs in order to execute. Then it collects copies of all those files and puts them with your script in a single folder, or optionally in a single executable file.

Only use this tool against systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test — see the disclaimer.
