Nexe is a command-line utility that compiles your Node.js application into a single executable file.

• Ability to run multiple applications with different node.js runtimes.
• Distributable binaries without needing node / npm.
• Starts faster.
• Lockdown specific application versions, and easily rollback.
• Faster deployments.

• Linux / Mac / BSD / Windows
• Windows: Python 2.6 or 2.7 (in PATH), Visual Studio 2010 or 2012

• Doesn't support native modules (yet).

Via NPM:

	npm install nexe [-g]

Or git:

	git clone 

	
Usage: nexe -i [sources] -o [binary]

Options:
  -i, --input    The entry javascript files         [default: cwd]
  -o, --output   The output binary                  [default: cwd/release/app.nex]
  -r, --runtime  The node.js runtime to use         [default: "0.8.15"]
  -t, --temp     The path to store node.js sources  [default: /tmp/nexe]
  -f, --flags    Don't parse node and v8 flags, pass through app flags  [default: false]

nexe.compile({
	input: 'input.js',
