### Build Windows x86_64
brew install mingw-w64
cargo build --release --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu


### Build Linux x86_64
brew tap messense/macos-cross-toolchains
brew install messense/macos-cross-toolchains/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

# consider adding theses to ~/.zshrc
export CC_X86_64_UNKNOWN_LINUX_GNU=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc
export CXX_X86_64_UNKNOWN_LINUX_GNU=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-g++
