You can set things up so that end-users don't have to install cython.
You just convert the .pyx files to regular .c files before
distributing your package. Numpy itself uses cython, but end-users
don't notice or care. (It's something more of a hassle for developers
to do things this way, and cython is very easy to install, so I don't
know if it's worth it. But it's certainly possible.)
