Summary
napi-rs has a pretty convenient built-in system for generating prebuilt npm packages for Rust-based modules, plus has other features that would help us out (BigInt support, Promise support, automatically generating TS definitions and JS bindings). Since I'm working on generating prebuilt packages, I wanted to make this change first.
This is pretty likely to fail CI somewhere, so I'm putting this in draft until CI passes.
Testing Plan
I tried generating a transaction, mining, and syncing blocks from another node.
Breaking Change
This shouldn't break compatibility with other versions of the node, but it will require an upgrade of your Rust compiler if building from source.
