 1 | installs
 2 | 
 3 | - `zigcc`
 4 | - `zigcpp`
 5 | 
 6 | to your nimble dir.
 7 | Both are wrappers for calling zig:
 8 | 
 9 | - `zig cc`
10 | - `zig c++`
11 | 
12 | also see this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73345643/how-to-use-the-zig-compiler-in-order-to-compile-nim-code

14 | # Installation
15 | ```
16 | nimble install zigcc
17 | ```
18 | 
19 | # windows
20 | 
21 | ```
22 | nim c --cc:clang --clang.exe="zigcc.cmd" --clang.linkerexe="zigcc.cmd" --forceBuild:on --opt:speed hello.nim
23 | ```
24 | 
25 | # linux and rest
26 | 
27 | ```
28 | nim c --cc:clang --clang.exe="zigcc" --clang.linkerexe="zigcc" --forceBuild:on --opt:speed hello.nim
29 | ```
30 | 
31 | # cross compilation example
32 | 
33 | build linux executables from windows:
34 | 
35 | ```
36 | nim c --cc:clang --clang.exe="zigcc.cmd" --clang.linkerexe="zigcc.cmd" --passc:"-target x86_64-linux-gnu" --passl:"-target x86_64-linux-gnu" --forceBuild:on --os:linux --opt:speed  --out:hellolinux hello.nim
37 | ```
38 | 
39 | build windows executables from linux:
40 | 
41 | ```
42 | nim c --cc:clang --clang.exe="zigcc" --clang.linkerexe="zigcc" --passc:"-target x86_64-windows" --passl:"-target x86_64-windows" --forceBuild:on --os:windows --opt:speed foo.nim
