📣 dist 0.26.0 is out!
- 🦀 built-in Rust cross-compilation
- 🛡️ cyclonedx SBOMs, cargo-audit, and omniBOR
- 🪪 checksum verification in all installers
...and more!
check out the release notes here: github.com/axodotdev/cargo-d…
we've always had the ambition to be the distribution solution for projects across any language.
today, we have folks shipping not only rust, but php, javascript, c++, and more!
the name cargo-dist has always obfuscated this... until now:
"hello dist!"

📣 cargo-dist...err dist 0.24 is out!
we've got a new(ish) shorter name- and we've fully dropped cargo as a runtime dep for non-rust projects!
this release is one of a few steps in fully renaming the project in prep for 1.0 🥇

I didn't expect increased unification of the Windows and Unix development experience to be a side effect of Rust's success, but it's a very nice one. The fact that tools like Nushell and ripgrep are cross-platform makes switching between Win/Mac/Linux much more seamless.
📣 cargo-dist 0.23.0 is out!

- 🔧 new config format for all projects

cargo-dist is such a nice thing. Most of my little Rust tools now have available binaries that you can curl to bash install. github.com/mitsuhiko/systemf…

lots of folks are surprised when they see cargo-dist builds their apps on the oldest runners it can, find out why it makes your app work for as many users as possible! 💪

"The worst thing an installer can do is fail to install software, but the second-worst thing an installer can do is to successfully install software that doesn't work."
great post on @axodotdev's latest work on glibc compat from @mistydemeo
Wrote a new blog post for the axo blog: how we made our shell installers smarter. We now track the version of glibc Linux binaries were built against and do some smart version comparison to make sure we're always installing a binary that actually works.

vibe check: in order for software to be considered open source, building it on my own for my own needs should be made "easy/accessible" by the original authors

Few months late to this but I like the additional lever @BuoyantIO / @Linkerd has pulled for open source monetization: stable releases.
Otherwise, the default options have been 1) hosted cloud or 2) 'open core'.
h/t @ag_dubs for sharing
