axo blog - Release Engineering Is Exhausting So Here's cargo-dist

Release Announcement for cargo-dist, a tool to help you package up binaries for a Rust application.

@Gankra have you considered supporting some sort of automatic signing mechanism (like sigstore) for releases?

@ariadne on the roadmap as "this is important but I don't know anything about it yet"

so if you're an expert on this then i'd love suggestions https://github.com/axodotdev/cargo-dist/issues/21

code signing? · Issue #21 · axodotdev/cargo-dist

Some platforms complain if you run unsigned code :( Not sure if this is in scope for dist or a different tool altogether, but it should probably be out of scope for the MVP.

@Gankra i will have some of my people reach out!
