# Crystal

- Build and run the program directly: `crystal <file>`
- Compile the program to binary: `crystal build <file>`
    - Add `--progress` or `-p` to show build progress
    - Add `--release` when you're building the release version (takes longer)
    - Add `--no-debug` to increase the build speed (useful for dev builds)
    - Add `-o` to specify the location of the output file
