as i’m starting to expose zig to newcomers, i’m always on the lookout for “technical overviews” of particular aspects of the langauge/compiler/build-system/etc…
for the build system, there is (of course) the ziglang.org documentation…
i’m actually looking for something that is less about “how do i do X” but rather “how does the build-system itself do X”… said another way, a little more focused on the underlying implementation – including the all-important role played by the cache…
i just found this description of build-system internals, which seemed interesting at first glance…
but i’m just learning the build-system myself… i’m curious if some of our “expects” could give me their opinions of this article – or else suggest some other vetted references…
