Bundling of assets
Building binaries for distribution (e.g. the right glibc version, the right CPU target, etc.)
How to hide the windows command prompt (exe.subsystem = .Windows;)
Code signing / notarization
Packaging of apps for distribution (e.g. installers, debian packages, etc.)
Custom icons:

i believe on windows you need a resource file (.rc), luckily someone added an rc compiler to zig so it should be as easy as exe.addWin32ResourceFile(.{ .path = });
on linux i think you need a .desktop file which needs to be placed in somewhere like ~/.local/share/applications but you also need icon images in ~/.local/share/icons (linux is just a mess, this is why we have system package managers
