run vs build

zolo run interpreta; zolo build emite un binario nativo. Salida idéntica en ambos.

// Feature: the two backends — VM (`zolo run`) vs native (`zolo build`)

// Syntax: `zolo run file.zolo`  |  `zolo build file.zolo`

// When to use: `run` for scripts, REPL-speed iteration, and VM-only

//   features (signals, schemas, effects, comptime-emit, channels,

//   machines). `build` for a standalone native executable.


// This program runs identically on both backends:

//

//   zolo run  30-compilation/01-run-vs-build.zolo   # interpreted (VM)

//   zolo build 30-compilation/01-run-vs-build.zolo  # native binary (Cranelift)

//   ./01-run-vs-build                               # then run the binary

//

// `zolo build` with no `--emit` defaults to a NATIVE executable compiled

// through Cranelift. There is no Lua/VM in the output — it is a real

// machine-code binary linked for the host platform.


let answer = 6 * 7
print("the answer is", answer)

// Gotcha: the native backend has no VM prelude. Globals the VM installs

// (signals, schemas, effects, channels, `machine`) are NOT available when

// you `zolo build`. Use `zolo run` for those. See the README capability

// matrix for the full VM-only list.

//

// expected (either backend):

//   the answer is	42
