This pull request addresses the need to simplify the installation process of Exo for non-technical users by creating one-click installables for Linux, MacOS, and Windows platforms.

Changes Made:

  1. CI/CD Pipeline Update: Modified the CircleCI configuration to include a new job create_installables that automates the creation of installables on each commit.

    • Installs necessary dependencies and uses a Docker image with Python 3.12.0.
    • Executes a script to generate standalone executables for each target platform.
  2. Installable Creation Script: Added create_installables.sh script to handle the creation of standalone executables using PyInstaller.

    • Supports Linux, MacOS, and Windows platforms.
    • Includes checks and installations for platform-specific dependencies like Homebrew for MacOS and Wine for Windows cross-compilation.

Benefits:

  • Simplifies the installation process for non-technical users by providing a single executable per platform.
  • Automates the build process through CI/CD, ensuring that installables are up-to-date with the latest code changes.

This implementation aims to reduce the technical barrier for users wanting to use Exo, making it more accessible and user-friendly.
