You should give Golang a shot. It checks all your requirements.

- sjurba 9y agoYes, I have looked at that, and it is tempting. But you still have to worry about cross compiling and distribution. Right?
- anonfunction 9y agoCross compiling is very easy since Go 1.5, just add some environment variables before running `go build`, which can be put in a Makefile. Distribution is a little trickier since there is no package manager ala npm, however it's a little easier in that you don't need anything except for the binary. For people who have Go installed they just `go get REPO` and it's installed, for others they can just wget the binary into their bin.
