rust-musl-cross
Docker images for compiling static Rust binaries using musl-cross for multiple architectures.
What is rust-musl-cross?
rust-musl-cross is a collection of Docker images that enable cross-compilation of Rust applications into static binaries using musl-libc. It simplifies building portable, standalone executables that can run on various Linux systems without external dependencies by containerizing the toolchain. The project supports multiple target architectures and integrates seamlessly with Docker workflows.
Rust developers who need to compile their applications into static binaries for deployment across different Linux environments or architectures, particularly those using Docker for build automation and CI/CD pipelines.
Developers choose rust-musl-cross for its prebuilt, multi-architecture Docker images that eliminate the complexity of setting up cross-compilation toolchains manually. Its unique selling point is the combination of musl-libc for static linking, broad target support (including ARM, MIPS, PowerPC, and RISC-V), and Docker-convention alias tags that simplify multi-platform builds.
