distutils, included in the standard Python library. You surely have 
the docs installed, anyway you can read it online at 
http://docs.python.org/dist/dist.html

For the simplest case (your app only contains python modules) just 
write a setup.py file on the top directory of you application:

from distutils.core import setup
setup(name='appname',
     version='1.0',
     py_modules=['foo', 'bar'],
     )

and execute: python setup.py sdist
