=============================
Distributing Your Application
=============================
Once your application works properly, you can create a :term:`distribution` from it by using the ``setup.py sdist`` command.
The following commands assume your current working directory contains the ``tutorial`` package and the ``setup.py`` file.
On Unix:
.. code-block:: bash
$VENV/bin/python setup.py sdist
On Windows:
.. code-block:: doscon
%VENV%\Scripts\python setup.py sdist
The output of such a command will be something like:
.. code-block:: text
running sdist
# more output
creating dist
Creating tar archive
removing 'tutorial-0.0' (and everything under it)
This command creates a subdirectory named ``dist``.
Inside that is a tarball named ``tutorial-0.0.tar.gz``, which is the :term:`distribution` of your application.
You can send this file to your friends to show them your cool new application.
They should be able to install it by pointing the ``pip install`` command directly at it.
Or you can upload it to `PyPI <https://pypi.org/>`_ and share it with the rest of the world, where it can be downloaded via ``pip install`` remotely like any other package people download from PyPI.
