#App Icon
You must have embed-resource in your Cargo.toml as a `[build dependency]`
```
[build dependency]
embed-resource = "3.0.2"

You should have your desired output filename designated in your Cargo.toml as 
```
[package.metadata.winres]
OriginalFilename = "<appname>.exe"
```

##Compiling for Linux

##Install zigbuild via (MACOS ONLY)
`cargo install cargo-zigbuild`
Provide a path to your cargo dependency binaries (somewhere like `~/.cargo/bin`)
`zigbuild_path=/Users/<username>/.cargo/bin/cargo-zigbuild`

##Install Zig via homebrew
provide a path to your homebrew binaries (somewhere like `/opt/homebrew/bin`) in your .env
`homebrew_path=/opt/homebrew/bin`
