How to turn the V8 compiled javascript into an EXE?

Question

I know that google\'s v8 compiles javascript into native machine (binary if I understand correctly) code.
Is there a way to take the output and turn it into a exe?

Answer 1

Javascript cannot be compiled just once. The language has eval which is pretty widely used. (for JSON for instance) You need to carry around the JIT, and the whole runtime.

JIT here is only an optimization, not the way to get rid of the compiler/interpreter.
