I wrote a blog post about using Zig with CGo, the main problem is that CGo doesn't expect the CC command to have a space in it and the workaround is to wrap the Zig invocation inside a bash script. https://dev.to/kristoff/zig-makes-go-cross-compilation-just-work-29ho https://dev.to/kristoff/zig-makes-go-cross-compilation-just-... As a related note, it seems that Go 1.17 won't have the fix as the relative patch has not been merged (see https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/276412/ https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/276412/ ). Would be awesome if somebody from the Go team saw this post and made it happen :)

Thanks a lot, I was trying to use it all day yesterday and just couldn't get it work. Zig and Go are a great match it seems.

Zig should work like multi call binaries (i.e. busybox) so a link to it called cc or would call the compiler.
