electron-vite: Easy way to protect your Electron source code
electron-vite inspired by bytenode, the specific implementation:
- Delivering an application in CL w.o. source
- How to secure an Electron app with a license key
-
Compile your JS code: New Bytenode support for Electron
It doesn't appear that there is any performance penalty to using Bytenode. There are some benchmark functions in the repository, but certainly more work could be done to test. My gut feeling is that the minor overhead of loading the binary is balanced out by the minor speed increase by giving V8 a pre-compiled file.

Hide source code
There's an NPM package called bytenode which compiles your JavaScript to V8 bytecode.

Compile your JS code: New Bytenode support for Electron
Take a look at the electron-bytenode-example repository - in particular the preload script. You can see the 'DOMContentLoaded' example there. You need to do that because preload runs before the DOM has been loaded. That example has both nodeIntegration: true and contextIsolation: false. However, the preload script should always have access to both Node and the DOM, so you should be able to set it up so that all of your scripting happens in preload.
