`x`. There are a lot of options here, but let's start with what is
|

probably the best "go to" command for building a local compiler:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|

./x build library
|
||||
```console
|
||||
./x build rustc
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This may *look* like it only builds the standard library, but that is not the case.
|
||||
What this command does is the following:
|
||||
What this command does is build `rustc` using the stage0 compiler and stage0 `std`.
|
||||
|
||||
- Build `rustc` using the stage0 compiler
|
||||
- This produces the stage1 compiler
|
||||
- Build `std` using the stage1 compiler
|
||||
To build `rustc` with the in-tree `std`, use this command instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
./x build rustc --stage 2
|
||||
```
|

|

This final product (stage1 compiler + libs built using that compiler)
|

is what you need to build other Rust programs (unless you use `#![no_std]` or

Note that this whole command just gives you a subset of the full `rustc`

- Build `rustc` with the stage1 compiler.

- The resulting compiler here is called the "stage2" compiler, which uses stage1 std from the previous command.
