Matlab runntime downloaded from the web in matlab python package

Hi, I am deploying a Matlab python package to be used in a machine learning application. I call some Matlab functions from my python script and everything works flawlessly! But now I have to distribute this package so that other people can use it in their machine learning applications. I am a bit puzzled with the option of deploying the application by choosing the option of downloading the Matlab runntime from the web which reduces my package size from 1Gb to 5Mb, I obviously can't distribute the 1Gb version with the Matlab runntime included in the package. Choosing the Matlab runntime downloaded from the web option, I am interested in whether other people, who don't own a Matlab licence, wishing to use my application will be able to use it with no problems.

Thank you!

Yes, if downloading from Web option is selected, your users, who do not have a license nor installation of MATLAB would install MATLAB Runtime from web sites. So, internet connection is required when installing your compiled application, but I think there would be no problem.
