I’m working on an application that needs bundled data to function—think football match prediction that needs team statistics, or a Pokémon damage calculator that requires move and type effectiveness tables. What’s the best practice for packaging this data with your application? I’m particularly interested in solutions for compiled languages that distribute through package managers like Rust/Cargo, but would love to hear approaches for other ecosystems too. I know it’s possible to embed data directly into the binary at compile time, but I’m curious how common this is in practice, especially when dealing with larger datasets that could significantly increase binary size. What are the trade-offs and alternatives you’ve used?
