• Compile and run the project in the current directory: zig build run
• Initialize a zig build project with library and executable: zig init
• Create and run a test build: zig test path/to/file.zig
• Cross compile, build and run a project for x86_64 architecture and windows operating system: zig build run -fwine -Dtarget=x86_64-windows
• Reformat Zig source into canonical form: zig fmt path/to/file.zig
• Translate a C file to zig: zig translate-c -lc path/to/file.c
