vaultwarden doesn't currently provide standalone binaries as a separate download, but for platforms that have an Alpine-based Docker image available (currently x86-64 and ARMv7), you can extract standalone, statically-linked binaries from the official Docker images. Each Docker image also includes a matching web vault build (which is platform-independent).
Extracting binaries with Docker installed
Assuming you want to extract binaries for the platform you're running on:
docker pull vaultwarden/server:alpine
docker create --name bwrs vaultwarden/server:alpine
docker cp bwrs:/vaultwarden .
docker cp bwrs:/web-vault .
docker rm bwrs
If you want binaries for a different platform (for example, you only have Docker installed on your x86-64 machine, but you want to run vaultwarden on a Raspberry Pi), add the --platform option to the docker pull command:
docker pull --platform linux/arm/v7 vaultwarden/server:alpine
# Run remaining commands as above.
# Note that the `docker create` command may print a message like:
# WARNING: The requested image's platform (linux/arm/v7) does not match the detected host platform (linux/amd64)
# and no specific platform was requested
# This is expected, and isn't cause for concern.
Extracting binaries without Docker installed
If you can't or don't want to install Docker, you can use the docker-image-extract script to pull and extract a Docker image. For example, to pull and extract the x86-64 image:
$ mkdir bwrs-image
$ cd bwrs-image
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jjlin/docker-image-extract/main/docker-image-extract
$ chmod +x docker-image-extract
$ ./docker-image-extract vaultwarden/server:alpine

If you want the ARMv7 image, you currently have to download it by digest.
Go to https://hub.docker.com/r/vaultwarden/server/tags?name=alpine and find the entry for the alpine tag.
Click the partial digest for the linux/arm/v7 image:
This should bring you to a page that shows the full digest:
Copy the full digest, and replace the docker-image-extract vaultwarden/server:alpine command above with
docker-image-extract vaultwarden/server:<full_digest>.
For example:
$ ./docker-image-extract vaultwarden/server:sha256:ef129de113bec3409b6370c37a6e5573a1dacc051a3aae2a8a3339323ae63623
