Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the Vue application build with opencv4nodejs and inspect how webpack handles node_modules/opencv4nodejs/build/Release/opencv4nodejs.node. Determine the appropriate package or bundling behavior, then verify that the application compiles without the binary parse error.
