Does F# offers native builds ? I thought it was CLR only.

Also Scala is about to jump to a new compiler (and maybe a new language). It's a weird time for scala (from the few that I know).

You can build arch-specific, single file binaries, but I believe the bulk of the executable is a zip file with the .net core runtime and all of your platform agnostic assemblies, so it's not exactly native like you're thinking of
