Zig
Zig is a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal and reusable software.
In Nixpkgs, zig overrides the default build, check and install phases.
Example code snippet
{
lib,
stdenv,
zig,
}:
stdenv.mkDerivation {
# . . .
nativeBuildInputs = [ zig ];
zigBuildFlags = [ "-Dman-pages=true" ];
dontUseZigCheck = true;
# . . .
}
