@Alerinos I’m not sure if this is still relevant for you, but for Node.js embedders like node-webkit or electron you’ll need to recompile any native addons you’re using, unfortunately.

[jniles]

@addaleax, I've also been running into this. Would it be possible to use something like prebuild to download precompiled Windows 10 binaries on Linux/Docker?

[addaleax]

@jniles This project does provide prebuilt binaries. However, that doesn’t affect the fact Electron or similar environments still have special needs when it comes to native addons on Windows (due to the fact that the main .exe file has a different name).

[jniles]

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying and your help.
