SYNOPSIS

pyi-build <options> SPECFILE

DESCRIPTION

Like with setuptools, by default directories build and dist will be created. build is a private workspace for caching some information The generated files will be placed within the dist subdirectory; that's where the files you are interested in will be placed.
