# tinierfetch
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> a self-imposed code-golf challenge on following qualifiers
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. speed
|
||
|
|
2. binary size
|
||
|
|
3. compilation duration
|
||
|
|
4. (optional) lines of code
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## depends
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
you will need `TERM`, `LANG`, `USER`, `SHELL` environmental variables to be set, they usually are.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- for C++, see the Makefile for available jobs.
|
||
|
|
- for Rust, the `--release` profile handles the optimizations for you
|
||
|
|
- for Go, you will want to pass `-ldflags="-s -w"` to `go build`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
a helper script is provided below. it will build each program and compare them using Hyperfine
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_it fits in a [QR code](./assets/qr.png)_
|

## todo
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
- more languages:

|
## verdict
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Rust, for speed
|
||
|
|
- C++, for optimized size
|
||
|
|
- Go, if you hate yourself (or can't tolerate Rust syntax)
