<p>Maybe (/ probably) not what you are going for, but I think that is how self contained and single file apps in the dotnet (v6 and up?) world work: When building a single file executable all the necessary files for the release - and there might be lots of them - are just hidden in an included archive. When the user executes the EXE file the contents are first extracted and then some “bootstrapper” file is run once everything is in place (in some temporary directory).</p>
<p>So if you don’t mind build something like that in another language you could probably do the same to get a single-file elixir-based windows executable without a terminal.</p>
