Build commands

Development:

cargo build
cargo r

Release build:

cargo build --release
./target/release/numo path/to/your/file.numo

Maximum optimization:

cargo build --release-max
./target/release-max/numo path/to/your/file.numo

Run and format

Run a file:

numo path/to/file.numo

Format in place:

numo path/to/file.numo --format

Alias:

numo path/to/file.numo --fmt

Compile to executable

./target/release/numo compile app.numo -o app
./app

How packaging works:

• The runtime binary is used as a base.
• Your source is embedded into the output executable.
• Payload compression is enabled by default.
• Symbol stripping is applied on Unix.
• Optional UPX compression is used when available.

Disable compression when needed:

./target/release/numo compile app.numo -o app --no-compress
