does not compile in Github Codespaces

Question

does not compile in Github Codespaces

mxjosie opened this issue a year ago · comments

For some reason, i cannot immediately run zig build when i fork Ziglings into Codespaces. I tried another project - this one https://github.com/kxkx5150/Codespaces-Zig-template - and it was able to run zig build with no issue. Not sure if this is an issue with Ziglings or with Codespaces, but Codespaces does seem to be able to run zig if the repository is set up how it likes.

if it matters, I am running Codespaces in the latest version of Firefox on Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC.

You have to install Zig.

The project you mentioned installed it in the Docker file: https://github.com/kxkx5150/Codespaces-Zig-template/blob/master/.devcontainer/Dockerfile
