Developers who wish to use node-gir via npm install node-gir must compile the native code locally with node-gyp. This happens automatically but is a pain if they don't have all the correct libraries/versions installed.
In this issue I'm hoping to find some ideas for creating/distributing binary builds of node-gir's native addon.
node-pre-gyp seems like a good starting point.
This will also have implications for react-native-gtk as users of that library may want to create binary distributions of both node-gir and gtk3.
