I have a lot of thoughts here, that I'm hoping to chime in with more later.
My contribution to "prior art" is Hera, a packaged Mac app that is a complete Jupyter and Python install: https://github.com/phildini/hera
This seems to be the goal of https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer

i think meanwhile pipx is the established solution to distribute Pathon applications, so that this isn't an issue anymore.
Hi, just checking in to see if we're still interested on this? It's been a while since this issue was active :)

I'm fine with pipx being the solution. If anyone feels strongly we should do more, by all means let me know.

How would this feature be useful?
Nox, like all meta Python tools, suffers from the "bootstrap" problem: You have to have Python installed and you have to be able to install Python packages to install Nox.
This is actually a big hurdle for newcomers. Packaging Nox as a standalone binary with at least one version of Python would make this much easier on people. We could also consider Pyenv integration (#4) to help gather missing interpreters on demand.
