I initially thought it's Python to Rust conversion tool.

  while not being a full conversion tool it actually also can function as a bridge between python and rust, from the docs "While solving packaging and distribution problems is the primary goal of PyOxidizer, a side-effect of solving that problem with Rust is that PyOxidizer can serve as a bridge between these two languages. PyOxidizer can be used to easily add a Python interpreter to any Rust project. But the opposite is also true: PyOxidizer can also be used to add Rust to Python. Using PyOxidizer, you could bootstrap a new Rust project which contains an embedded version of Python and your application. Initially, your project is a few lines of Rust that instantiates a Python interpreter and runs Python code. Over time, functionality could be (re)written in Rust and your previously Python-only project could leverage Rust and its diverse ecosystem. Since PyOxidizer abstracts the Python interpreter away, this could all be invisible to end-users: you could rewrite an application from Python to Rust and people may not even know because they never see a libpython, .py files, etc."
