An Introduction to Dragon/Lessons/Installation

Installation and Building from Source Dragon is currently distributed as source and built with Cargo, so a recent stable Rust toolchain (edition 2021) is required. Cloning and building # Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/aaveshdev/dragon.git cd dragon # Build the CLI in debug mode cargo build # Build an optimized release binary (recommended) cargo build --release The compiled CLI binary is produced as dragon (or dragon.exe on Windows) at: target/release/dragon Cargo also builds a shared library (dragon_lib, i.e. dragon_lib.dll / libdragon_lib.so / libdragon_lib.dylib) automatically alongside the CLI, since the library target's crate type includes both cdylib and rlib. Installing the CLI globally cargo install --path . This installs the dragon binary onto your PATH, so it can be invoked from any directory. Feature and target notes Native codegen (--native) shells out to a system C compiler (gcc, clang, or cl on Windows), so one of these must be on your PATH for that feature to work. Android targets pull in jni / ndk dependencies automatically. WASM targets pull in wasm-bindgen / web-sys / getrandom automatically. On aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu, OpenSSL is vendored and built from source, so a C toolchain is required there as well. License Dragon is licensed under the MIT License.
