Still need the entire browser DOM, APIs, layout, renderers, etc outside of JS. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

another use case is getting standalone self-contained binaries which are easier to ship. other projects like claude code use something like `bun build --compile`[^1] for that, which instead of producing a small native binary just bundle the JS runtime into the executable. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
