We are under DDoS attack and we do nothing
I don't remember the details, and cannot find my notes on vercel/pkg. But looking at https://github.com/vercel/pkg right now I see the project has been deprecated in favour of single-executable-applications

Tailwind CSS v4.0.0 Alpha
> Standalone CLI β we havenβt worked on a standalone CLI for the new engine yet, but will absolutely have it before the v4.0 release.
This part is the most exciting to me. Given the rest of the release announcement, I'm assuming this means that it'll be built in Rust rather than embed Node. While I'm not a Rust zealot of anything, I'm very partial to not embedding Node. Particularly when it depends on using Vercel's now-abandoned pkg[1] tool.`

Things I've learned about building CLI tools in Python
The npm package called "pkg" seems to be the standard for packaging NodeJS applications
https://www.npmjs.com/package/pkg
Unfortunately you also need to bundle all your code into a single file for it to work, but you can use any bundler (webpack, parcel, etc) you want at least

Deno 1.35: A fast and convenient way to build web servers
Nodejs support for "single executable applications" is getting there - this issue below is preventing wider adoption at the moment:
"The single executable application feature currently only supports running a single embedded script using the CommonJS module system."
https://nodejs.org/api/single-executable-applications.html
Should be an awesome game changer for node.js when the feature gets rounded out.

How to run code without node?
In addition to the other responses, there are node packages like pkg and nexe that you can use to package the node executable and your code into a single executable.
-
Deploy on Windows Server
well... you need the code on the server in some way in order to run it. Nodejs doesn't compile to a binary. There are ways to wrap a node install and the code into a binary. But I have never used that in production and can't actually recommend it.

Can I use Node for general scripting? (Like python)
yes, you can even compile your js if you want a single executable, with things like nexe
