There is a later writeup at https://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Guides/J8_Standalone , which is mainly intended for Jqt applications.
In general, a distributed application needs at least the J binaries ( jconsole + jlib, e.g. on Windows jconsole.exe and j.dll) plus a script. If your app has several source scripts, then catenate them together to create a single script for distribution. You can decide whether just to distribute this minimum, or distribute a base installation with your script, see https://www.jsoftware.com/download/j901/install . There are no automated tools that would look at your application and decide what needs to be distributed, but it should be straightforward to find this out.
