Zig's June 30, 2026 devlog splits all package-management logic (zig build/fetch/init/libc, HTTP client, TLS, git, decompression) out of the compiler and into the build system's "maker" process.

The compiler binary shrinks about 4%.

Deno 2.9 introduces `deno desktop` — turning a Deno or Next.js project into a single native binary with no Electron boilerplate.
