This example compiles the Node.js source code from a v20.9.0 git clone, showing the command-line sequence required to produce a custom build. The process uses `./configure` with a custom `--prefix`, `make -j4` for parallel compilation, and `make install` to place the resulting binaries under `/opt/node`. It also demonstrates how the build environment is prepared by installing dependencies like `build-essential`, `clang-10`, and `python3-distutils` via `apt`, with environment variables `CC` and `CXX` selecting the clang compilers before running the build.
