Is it possible to protect the code by providing the customer with a VirtualBox image?

Question

virtual box

Hi all.
Our application is written in Python, the code is open or easily decompiled.
The task is to convey the solution to the customer without providing the source code.
An option came to mind - to place the code in a virtual machine.
I ask the community to speak out, what do you think about this idea?

Answer 1

if Win then read about packaging py in exe
You can also rewrite it to the site, for example using Flask and deploy it to vps
