Get rid of Node.js and NPM as an pre-installed end-user dependency #364

Closed Croydon closed 5 years ago

Croydon commented 7 years ago

Introduced on Windows with 8b21c5373df70bba01f091af6cfa0d8a49d87def

always was this way on Linux

Obviously we can't expect players to install Node.js manually, so we have to found another way how to ship it.

Will be done via snapcraft on the inexor flex package as a separate dependency. I can't speak for windows though..

a-teammate commented 7 years ago

we could simply install it via conan and then bundle it in the releases.

The flex workstream decided that go will be used in the future for flex. Since we can pack single binaries with it easily I will close this issue.
