Here is my particular incantation for targeting node that is working very well: https://pastebin.com/ynz4B5X0

Essentially you pretend to be a library

It uses Vite so the same limitations as Vite. However, I have been using Vite for my NestJS servers without any problem with `vite-plugin-node`. See example at https://github.com/leosuncin/nest-vite-example/blob/master/v...

I am using Vite+ for CLIs as well, yes. You don't use Vite as dev server then but lint, format, task running and caching is still there!

I'm always curious of the use case when someone proposes Node code bundling. What's the advantage? Obfuscation in SEA?
