pkgとnexeの違い

nodeをインストールしてないパソコンでjsを動かしたい

プログラム書いて相手に渡したいときとかに使える

nexe:

Bundles the application if desired using webpack.

Downloads node source (or a prebuilt binary)

Adds your application bundle as a native module (like fs, http, path etc)

Applies arbitrary source patches.

Maybe compiles downloaded source

Inserts bundle into pre-sized binary

Code is run as main when executable is run (instead of the repl)

Bundles the application with a custom v8 script compiler into a snapshot

Downloads the node source (or a prebuilt binary)

Applies arbitrary source patches

Maybe compiles downloaded source

Appends snapshotted output to the end of the binary

Snapshot (cachedData from v8) is loaded/run when binary executes.

nodeのbinary 35Mくらいだった

puppeteer-coreをpkgしたら39MだったのでGUIが手軽に作れていいと思う
