Could we say something like: "Building all crates in the wasmtime + Cranelift repository will require a nightly version of Rust. With stable Rust, one can build the
wasmtimebinary (cargo buildin the repository root) and theclif-utilbinary (cargo build -p cranelift-tools). Core Cranelift cratescranelift-codegen,cranelift-wasmand their dependencies will build on stable Rust."? In other words, I don't want to give the impression that nothing at all is usable without nightly.Also should we say something about our goals? IIRC @alexcrichton had a related PR recently. Are we working toward only using stable Rust eventually or will we always have some nightly-only crates?

Lightbeam was ported to stable in https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/2370. I don't think there were any other crates that require nightly.

I think we don't have anything at this point that requires nightly, so this may need to be updated?

I suggest a small experiment to check your assumption:
- clean clone
- cargo test --all with stable rust
I've tried this and it complains about feature(test) being nightly only.

Lightbeam uses an unstable feature for benchmarks: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/blob/d2daf5064e5ee2f1c630579e4c6e273a5a504d3c/crates/lightbeam/src/lib.rs#L1
Simply building doesn't use this, only when testing the lightbeam crate is it used.

Wasmtime is a big repository and has a lot of projects in it. Mentioning very prominently inthe README that the whole project requires nightly because of one optional dependency only for tests feels a bit disingenuous which is why I think this should be reworded a bit.

Fair, I adjusted it to better reflect this notion. Note this the cranelift README not the top level one.

Not for Cranelift, only Wasmtime. Lightbeam is a part of Wasmtime. I haven't ever used nightly rustc to work on Cranelift.
