Building the Examples
The examples assume you have already built the raylib library in ../src.
With GNU make
makebuilds all examplesmake [module]builds all examples for a particular module (e.gmake core)
With Zig
The Zig toolchain can compile C and C++ in addition to Zig.
You may find it easier to use than other toolchains, especially when it comes to cross-compiling.
