Perry Compiles TypeScript directly to executables using SWC and LLVM
TL;DR · WeSearch summary

Perry is a new tool that compiles TypeScript directly into native executables for various platforms without any runtime dependencies. It utilizes SWC for parsing and LLVM for optimized code generation, resulting in small binary sizes and fast compilation times. The framework supports a wide range of native UI widgets and offers features like compile-time safety and automatic internationalization.
