Code protection for Node.js

jse-decryptor's Issues

Using the AST or V8 snapshots

First off thanks for taking the time to implement the idea from my SO answer!

Kind of a far fetched idea as it'd require some serious fiddling with v8's internals but if we were able to serialize/deserialize the in-memory representation of the AST we could make it a bit harder to get the original source.

Another option is using v8 snapshots, which allows you to save a binary representation of the compiled code and the heap to be loaded by v8. This would require compiling a version of node for each platform and each project though.

I'm not sure if it's exposed to node addons but we could also use native crypto for decryption.
