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 — we haven’t 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.

Can I include Node inside my project?
Yes, you can. Check out pkg for a fun option, which can package up your project and Node.js into a single executable.

[Question] How does Node-RED compile a flow?
Further, you could experiment with the pkg tool that allows you to package up Node JS, your source, and your dependencies into one single executable for easy distribution.

Ask HN: What is the most pleasant, uncomplicated full stack to start with?
I have built Web front-ends (React or Svelte) with Go-backend. Embed in a web-view to make it a native desktop app, or get funky and give it native chrome/menus etc. [Wails](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails) is a good candidate to start if you want to cut on boiler plate.

Game Server Development: How do you structure game state for easy, efficient, and configurable access?
In a "local" environment, where an executable can be provided to someone with the entire game contents. In this case, the game won't use WebSockets, and will instead use a Go/JS bridge (something like Wails) to connect.
