Description

Builds Rust projects with Zig used as the linker. It is useful for cross-compilation and for producing binaries targeting systems that are harder to build for with the default linker setup.

Use it when a Rust project needs Zig-based linking or cross-build support. Cross-compilation still needs target testing, because a successful build does not guarantee runtime behavior on the target system.

How to run

cargo zigbuild

Commands: cargo zigbuild
