Help needed with jpegli please

Hi
Seems we need to compile jpegli from git.

https://github.com/google/jpegli

I'm not able to do this at present.
Maybe a tildean person here is. :-)

I want to experiment and compare results with my installed mozjpeg.

Anybody know where there is a jpegli precompiled?
Something to drop into Linux usr/local/bin.
Or a windows executable to use with wine.

    Sure. I compiled these with gcc. It includes two binaries: cjpegli (encoder) and djpegli (decoder). Download zip via Dropbox. Link will probably expire eventually, when I clean up my files.

        Ah, you're looking for the library, not the binary itself. Okay, I'll have to see if I can build that as well. Hang tight.

    So what I like to do when trying to build a project is poke around their .github/workflows if they have any. In this case, it looks like they have the build process documented in release.yaml. Edit: I like to reference the workflows directly because sometimes the written docs aren't up to date with the actual build process.

    If you need further help distilling this into a local build script, add what platform you're trying to compile for (e.g. distro + version + cpu arch) and one of the other tildren will probably help you before I find the time to take a stab at it.

    Aaaand they already did.
