One thing I always wonder when I see native software posted here:

How do you guys handle the security aspect of executing stuff like this on your machines?

Skimming the repo it has about a thousand lines of code and a bunch of dependencies with hundreds of sub-dependencies. Do you read all that code and evaluate the reputation of all dependencies?

Do you execute it in a sandboxed environment?

Do you just hope for the best like in the good old times of the C64?
