I could do a PR based on the following sources, assuming you'd merge it (i.e. the effort won't be wasted).

• Building Zipapps (PEP 441)
• Packaging Python EXecutables (PEX)
• Installation With PEX
• Enabling Easy Zipapp Installs on Windows
• Bundling Python Dependencies in a ZIP Archive

   That would be so useful to have it in one place! I had to literally look up some this information a couple of days ago. Sure, go ahead and make some new content if you can. It most definitely won't be a wasted effort. I'll appreciate that!

   One open question is if the content warrants a whole chapter besides packaging and freezing, or add it to packaging.

   Either way will work for me, but personally I'd rather put it under the existing "packaging" section. Did you have a specific title for this new section in mind?

   To revisit this, Python has included zipapp since version 3.5. I think it belongs in or around freezing. Would a PR be considered for this?
