pkg binary builder has been deprecated

[cd-rite]

pkg has been deprecated with 5.8.1 as the last release. There are a number of successful forked versions of pkg already with various feature additions. Further, we’re excited about Node.js 21’s support for single executable applications. Thank you for the support and contributions over the years. The repository will remain open and archived.

If we intend to continue providing binary versions of the app, we may need to find an alternative solution.

Node now offers experimental support (19.x+) for building Single Executable Applications: https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v20.x/api/single-executable-applications.html An example is provided using this project: https://github.com/nodejs/postject

Or, try one of the forked versions of vercel/pkg
