Rust code just builds. a typical library will pull in hundreds of dependencies... and they will all just build (eventually). There are downsides to the approach but they are papercuts. Did I mention that Rust code builds? As in, you tell cargo to build something... And then it builds it? Type cargo build and enjoy the blinkenlights.
- klyrs 7y agoDoes cargo build C++ packages? That's the specific problem solved by this project.
- zamalek 7y agoIt generally manages this pretty well. You usually need a Perl interpreter installed (wtf) and then everything works.
- steveklabnik 7y agoIt can, but via custom scripts.
