Deno 1.34: deno compile supports npm packages. This feels like it could be extremely useful: Deno can load code from npm these days (import { say } from "npm:cowsay@1.5.0"
) and now the deno compile
command can resolve those imports, fetch all of the dependencies and bundle them together with Deno itself into a single executable binary. This means pretty much anything that's been built as an npm package can now be easily converted into a standalone binary, including cross-compilation to Windows x64, macOS x64, macOS ARM and Linux x64.
