Wait, you're telling me I can just download these 3-5 source files, type `make`, and it will _just build_?

No:

* Setting up an isolated build env

* Pulling 1600 dependencies and building them from source

* installing a filesystem layer with 1600 .so libraries

* running docker, npm, etc?

_AND_ it compiles in a fraction of a second?

Amazing what this new language C can do.
