Are you familiar with building C/C++ libraries or even object files?
There are documents and tools to help you turn C code into Python libraries
but that's really outside the scope of the tutor list.
About the dependencies I am not so sure as before.

trying to do. It's still not clear what exactly this source code will be.
Is it a library or a program?
Do you think is it better that I install a C compiler and I don't use python? I
use Anaconda...
>You will need a C compiler regardless, if you receive C source code.
Python cannot work with C in source format, only after it is compiled.
But that does not mean you can't use Python to work with it, and that is
probably easier than trying to write your whole application in
C++ - especially if you are not already fluent in C++.
I've no experience of Anaconda but it looks like it might be hard to find an
equivalent
in the C++ world, especially if you have already written a lot of
Python/Anaconda code.
