Summary
Hi RustPython team — thanks for your great work.
I have a question/idea: RustPython runs Python on a Rust-based interpreter. Have you ever considered supporting the reverse workflow — transpiling Python into Rust code, then compiling it with rustc?
Proposed workflow:
Input: Python source code
Step 1: Parse Python → build AST (RustPython already has a parser/AST)
Step 2: Convert Python AST → Rust AST / Rust source code
Step 3: Compile generated Rust with rustc to produce a native binary
