hmt-backend-native

Compile Cranelift IR into native machine code by auto-detecting the host architecture.

Installation

Prebuilt binaries Windows, Linux and macOS can be downloaded from the Github release page. If there is no distro package available in your preferred manager, you need Rust and cargo to build it.

Install from source:

1. Clone the repository with git clone https://github.com/hummanta/hmt-backend-native.git
2. From the hmt-backend-native directory, run cargo build --release to build the application in release mode.
3. After a successful compilation, launch the executable with: target/release/hmt-backend-native.

Install with cargo

To get the latest bug fixes and features, you can install the development version from git. However, this is not fully tested. That means you're probably going to have more bugs despite having the latest bug fixes.

cargo install --git https://github.com/hummanta/hmt-backend-native

This will download the source from the main branch, build and install it in Cargo's global binary directory (~/.cargo/bin/ by default).
