Ask HN: How do you share scripts with non-coders?

I used to work on a team with analysts who didn't know how to code. Typically, I'd write my own Python or R functions for data cleaning, light analysis, and plotting.

Eventually, the other analysts wanted to use my functions for their own projects, so I tried teaching them how to execute Python from the terminal. That didn't really work.

Then I spent a day building a small app to run my script. It was valuable, but still a lot of work for something so small.

Just wondering - what do others do to share scripts with non-coders?
