🌸 NAME 🌸

zvm-vmu — configure Zig and ZLS version-map sources 🦋

like, literally: you're telling zvm where to go look up Zig and ZLS releases. that's the whole vibe.

---

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

zvm vmu zig url
zvm vmu zig default
zvm vmu zig mach
zvm vmu zls url
zvm vmu zls default

five whole spells. pick the one that matches your intentions, bestie 💅

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

so here's the tea ☕ — zvm-vmu configures the remote metadata sources that get used when resolving Zig and ZLS releases. so when zvm goes "hmm which versions exist," this is where it looks it up. main character energy for real 👑

and a heads-up, no cap: custom URLs must use HTTP or HTTPS, and they must expose schemas compatible with the official sources. that's not me being picky, that's just how it is 🙈

---

💖 SUBCOMMANDS 💖

• zig — sets the Zig version-map URL. and here's the fun part: the value default restores the official ziglang.org map, and mach selects the Mach Engine Zig version map 🌈 two shortcuts, zero effort, we love that.
• zls — sets the ZLS release-worker URL. the value default restores the official releases.zigtools.org source 🎀

---

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

ok these are the actual things you type, copy them exactly please:

zvm vmu zig mach
zvm vmu zig https://example.com/zig/index.json
zvm vmu zls https://example.com/zls/
zvm vmu zig default

⚠️ side note, bestie: those https://example.com/... lines are examples. swap in your actual URL, don't just paste example.com and act surprised 😭
