Zig ELF Linker Improvements Devlog | Hacker News

Zig’s long-running effort to remove LLVM from its debug build pipeline is making steady progress.

The latest devlog says the team is getting closer to bootstrapping a full compiler pipeline for major targets.

This marks a significant shift in Zig’s compiler architecture, with potential benefits for portability and reduced LLVM dependency.

The update also points to ongoing improvements around the ELF linker and related build infrastructure.
