Node.js
Are there minimal NodeJS version, free of JS/TS dependencies? #53505

I am trying to re-package NodeJS and every of it's dependencies separately on Guix to allow cache and prevent rebuilds, and after coming across a few JS/TS dependencies (in my case, undici), I can't help but ask if there exist any such version of NodeJS, that does not come with any dependencies, excluding C/C++ libraries? |

Certain dependencies, such as corepack, NPM, and a few others, can be excluded from the build via CLI flags during the make process, but other than that, there is no minimal version of Node.js. |

Undici isn't optional, as it's used internally. NPM however (IIRC) be disabled when building, but I don't recall the exact steps to do so |

@RedYetiDev so I would have to bootstrap older version of NodeJS to build undici, to further build modern versions of NodeJS? What about node-slim - does that have non-JS dependencies? |

I'm not sure about node-slim, please reach out to the developers of that for information on that. |
