Each javascript engine uses different opcodes internally; there is no universal bytecode like Java, C# or Vulkan. using closure compiler or some other minification is the closest you can come; short symbols are quicker to process.
Trying to learn how to do that for V8 Engine, it is possible to generate precompiled javascript chunks and link them into the compiled product; but it's not a universal solution, and, as far as I can tell, isn't even really possible to do into dynamic libraries to add dynamically.
