The Temporal API proposal is set to be an upcoming fix for much of the Date inadequacy. It's available as a polyfill for playing around with now, and offers much of the same ease of use.

• makeself

  11 2,133 6.0 Shell

  A self-extracting archiving tool for Unix systems, in 100% shell script.

Yeah, I can understand that, but the same advantage doesn't easily apply to situations like Rust, where you're already quite unlikely to be building the program on your production machines. I've done the same for Python many times, actually, using pip download to retrieve dependencies and building a package that is then installed on the target machine with some makeself mess. It actually worked surprisingly well, much of the time.
