C# can create single-binary executables, even without native AOT.

They are still going to significant bigger than the equivalent golang binary because of the huge .NET runtime, no?

C#: 945 kB

Go: 2174 kB

Is this a fair comparison, won't doing anything more significant than `print` in C# require a .NET framework to be installed (200MB+)?

Since this is just Hello World, then TinyGo: 644kB

Yeah and I doubt many people care if the TS compiler is 200MB anyway LOL. It's 2025.

Depends on how well trimming works. It's probably still larger than Go even with trimming, but Go also has a runtime and won't produce tiny binaries.
