About:
Zigup is a command-line tool that downloads, manages, and switches between multiple versions of the Zig compiler. It ensures developers can easily access specific Zig releases for different projects without manual configuration. The tool simplifies toolchain management by providing a unified interface for version control.
Key Features:
  • Download and install specific Zig compiler versions
  • Switch between installed versions globally or per-project
  • Manage versions via a simple command-line interface
  • Supports both stable and nightly Zig releases
Use Cases:
  • Managing multiple Zig versions for different development projects
  • CI/CD pipelines requiring specific Zig compiler versions
  • Testing Zig code across different compiler releases
Alternatives:
  • zigenv – Similar version management functionality but zigup is more actively maintained
  • Manual installation – zigup automates version switching and management vs manual PATH configuration
