In other languages, there are ways to add compile-time conditionals. I've used this a lot for build system. Is there something similar for Zig?
Example with Nim:
when defined(linux):
# Do some Linux specific thing
else:
# Handle other systems
In the case above, the code inside the when/else block would be eliminated at compile time based on the condition

conditionals are automatically comptime if they depend only on comptime-known values
branches not taken at comptime won't be semantically analyzed

That's great, so I'd just need to get the system type at comptime

switch (@import("builtin").os.tag) {
.linux => {},
else => {},
}
You can ofc also use if/else if you prefer :)

if (builtin.os.tag == .linux) {
// do the linux thing
} else {
// do the other thing
}```
