# Read [these comments](pkgs/development/compilers/zig/hook.nix#L12-L30) on the default Zig flags, and the associated links. tigerbeetle stopped exposing the `-Doptimize` build flag, so we can't use the default Nixpkgs zig hook as-is. tigerbeetle only exposes a boolean `-Drelease` flag which we'll add in the tigerbeetle derivation in this file.
