I did mention simple single-binary builds using the CLI. (ie - it just works with one command). Not fiddling around for hours with PackageCompiler.jl. Fiddling around with snoopfiles, then forced to ask questions on the forums to do what other languages do out of the box is not the way to go for developer ergonomics.

Uhh, you don't have to do anything with snoop files, and it's just a one line CLI call.

    julia -e 'using PackageCompiler; create_sysimage(["MyPackage"], sysimage_path="MyPackage.so"; precompile_execution_file = "MyScriptOfWhatToCompile.jl")'

and now you have a binary. How are people "forced to ask questions on the fourms" if the only thing to do is to change file location names? Are you talking about PackageCompiler from 2019 or PackageCompiler from 2023?
