+# Static MUSL Build Guide for C Programs
+
+## Overview
+
+This guide explains how to build truly portable static binaries using Alpine Linux and MUSL libc. These binaries have **zero runtime dependencies** and work on any Linux distribution without modification.
+
+This guide is specifically tailored for C programs that use:
+- **nostr_core_lib** - Nostr protocol implementation
+- **nostr_login_lite** - Nostr authentication library
+- Common dependencies: libwebsockets, OpenSSL, SQLite, curl, secp256k1
+
+## Why MUSL Static Binaries?
+
+### Advantages Over glibc
+
+| Feature | MUSL Static | glibc Static | glibc Dynamic |
+|---------|-------------|--------------|---------------|
+| **Portability** | ✓ Any Linux | ⚠ glibc only | ✗ Requires matching libs |
+| **Binary Size** | ~7-10 MB | ~12-15 MB | ~2-3 MB |
+| **Dependencies** | None | NSS libs | Many system libs |
+| **Deployment** | Single file | Single file + NSS | Binary + libraries |
+| **Compatibility** | Universal | glibc version issues | Library version hell |
+
+### Key Benefits
+
+1. **True Portability**: Works on Alpine, Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Arch, etc.
+2. **No Library Hell**: No `GLIBC_2.XX not found` errors
+3. **Simple Deployment**: Just copy one file
+4. **Reproducible Builds**: Same Docker image = same binary
+5. **Security**: No dependency on system libraries with vulnerabilities
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Docker installed and running
+- Your C project with source code
+- Internet connection for downloading dependencies
+
+### Basic Build Process
+
+```bash
+# 1. Copy the Dockerfile template (see below)
+cp /path/to/c-relay/Dockerfile.alpine-musl ./Dockerfile.static
+
+# 2. Customize for your project (see Customization section)
+vim Dockerfile.static
+
+# 3. Build the static binary
+docker build --platform linux/amd64 -f Dockerfile.static -t my-app-builder .
+
+# 4. Extract the binary
+docker create --name temp-container my-app-builder
+docker cp temp-container:/build/my_app_static ./my_app_static
+docker rm temp-container
+
+# 5. Verify it's static
+ldd ./my_app_static  # Should show "not a dynamic executable"
+```
+
+## Dockerfile Template
+
+Here's a complete Dockerfile template you can customize for your project:

+```
+
+## Customization Guide
+
+### 1. Adjust Dependencies
+
+**Add dependencies** by modifying the `apk add` section:
+
+```dockerfile
+RUN apk add --no-cache \
+    build-base \
+    musl-dev \
+    # Add your dependencies here:
+    libpng-dev \
+    libpng-static \
+    libjpeg-turbo-dev \
+    libjpeg-turbo-static
+```
+
+**Remove unused dependencies** to speed up builds:
+- Remove `libwebsockets` section if you don't need WebSocket support
+- Remove `sqlite` if you don't use databases
+- Remove `curl` if you don't make HTTP requests
+
+### 2. Configure nostr_core_lib NIPs
+
+Specify which NIPs your application needs:
+
+```bash
+./build.sh --nips=1,6,19  # Minimal: Basic protocol, keys, bech32
+./build.sh --nips=1,6,13,17,19,44,59  # Full: All common NIPs
+./build.sh --nips=all  # Everything available
+```
+
+**Common NIP combinations:**
+- **Basic client**: `1,6,19` (events, keys, bech32)
+- **With encryption**: `1,6,19,44` (add modern encryption)
+- **With DMs**: `1,6,17,19,44,59` (add private messages)
+- **Relay/server**: `1,6,13,17,19,42,44,59` (add PoW, auth)
+
+### 3. Modify Compilation Flags
+
+**For your application:**
+
+```dockerfile
+RUN gcc -static -O2 -Wall -Wextra -std=c99 \
+    -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0 \  # REQUIRED for MUSL
+    -I. -Inostr_core_lib \                    # Include paths
+    src/*.c \                                  # Your source files
+    -o /build/my_app_static \                 # Output binary
+    nostr_core_lib/libnostr_core_x64.a \     # Nostr library
+    -lwebsockets -lssl -lcrypto \             # Link libraries
+    -lsqlite3 -lsecp256k1 -lcurl \
+    -lz -lpthread -lm -ldl
+```
+
+**Debug build** (with symbols, no optimization):
+
+```dockerfile
+RUN gcc -static -g -O0 -DDEBUG \
+    -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0 \
+    # ... rest of flags
+```
+
+### 4. Multi-Architecture Support
+
+Build for different architectures:
+
+```bash
+# x86_64 (Intel/AMD)
+docker build --platform linux/amd64 -f Dockerfile.static -t my-app-x86 .
+
+# ARM64 (Apple Silicon, Raspberry Pi 4+)
+docker build --platform linux/arm64 -f Dockerfile.static -t my-app-arm64 .
+```
+
+## Build Script Template
+
+Create a `build_static.sh` script for convenience:
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+set -e
+
+SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")" && pwd)"
+BUILD_DIR="$SCRIPT_DIR/build"
+DOCKERFILE="$SCRIPT_DIR/Dockerfile.static"
+
+# Detect architecture
+ARCH=$(uname -m)
+case "$ARCH" in
+    x86_64)
+        PLATFORM="linux/amd64"
+        OUTPUT_NAME="my_app_static_x86_64"
+        ;;
+    aarch64|arm64)
+        PLATFORM="linux/arm64"
+        OUTPUT_NAME="my_app_static_arm64"
+        ;;
+    *)
+        echo "Unknown architecture: $ARCH"
+        exit 1
+        ;;
+esac
+
+echo "Building for platform: $PLATFORM"
+mkdir -p "$BUILD_DIR"
+
+# Build Docker image
+docker build \
+    --platform "$PLATFORM" \
+    -f "$DOCKERFILE" \
+    -t my-app-builder:latest \
+    --progress=plain \
+    .
+
+# Extract binary
+CONTAINER_ID=$(docker create my-app-builder:latest)
+docker cp "$CONTAINER_ID:/build/my_app_static" "$BUILD_DIR/$OUTPUT_NAME"
+docker rm "$CONTAINER_ID"
+
+chmod +x "$BUILD_DIR/$OUTPUT_NAME"
+
+echo "✓ Build complete: $BUILD_DIR/$OUTPUT_NAME"
+echo "✓ Size: $(du -h "$BUILD_DIR/$OUTPUT_NAME" | cut -f1)"
+
+# Verify
+if ldd "$BUILD_DIR/$OUTPUT_NAME" 2>&1 | grep -q "not a dynamic executable"; then
+    echo "✓ Binary is fully static"
+else
+    echo "⚠ Warning: Binary may have dynamic dependencies"
+fi
+```
+
+Make it executable:
+
+```bash
+chmod +x build_static.sh
+./build_static.sh
+```
+
+## Common Issues and Solutions
+
+### Issue 1: Fortification Errors
+
+**Error:**
+```
+undefined reference to '__snprintf_chk'
+undefined reference to '__fprintf_chk'
+```
+
+**Cause**: GCC's `-O2` enables fortification by default, which uses glibc-specific functions.
+
+**Solution**: Add these flags to **all** compilation commands:
+```bash
+-U_FORTIFY_SOURCE -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0
+```
+
+This must be applied to:
+1. nostr_core_lib build.sh
+2. Your application compilation
+3. Any other libraries you build
+
+### Issue 2: Missing Symbols from nostr_core_lib
+
+**Error:**
+```
+undefined reference to 'nostr_create_event'
+undefined reference to 'nostr_sign_event'
+```
+
+**Cause**: Required NIPs not included in nostr_core_lib build.
+
+**Solution**: Add missing NIPs:
+```bash
+./build.sh --nips=1,6,19  # Add the NIPs you need
+```
+
+### Issue 3: Docker Permission Denied
+
+**Error:**
+```
+permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket
+```
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
+newgrp docker  # Or logout and login
+```
+
+### Issue 4: Binary Won't Run on Target System
+
+**Checks**:
+```bash
+# 1. Verify it's static
+ldd my_app_static  # Should show "not a dynamic executable"
+
+# 2. Check architecture
+file my_app_static  # Should match target system
+
+# 3. Test on different distributions
+docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app alpine:latest /app/my_app_static --version
+docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app ubuntu:latest /app/my_app_static --version
+```
+
+## Project Structure Example
+
+Organize your project for easy static builds:
+
+```
+my-nostr-app/
+├── src/
+│   ├── main.c
+│   ├── handlers.c
+│   └── utils.c
+├── nostr_core_lib/          # Git submodule
+├── nostr_login_lite/        # Git submodule (if used)
+├── Dockerfile.static        # Static build Dockerfile
+├── build_static.sh          # Build script
+├── Makefile                 # Regular build
+└── README.md
+```
+
+### Makefile Integration
+
+Add static build targets to your Makefile:
+
+```makefile
+# Regular dynamic build
+all: my_app
+
+my_app: src/*.c
+	gcc -O2 src/*.c -o my_app \
+		nostr_core_lib/libnostr_core_x64.a \
+		-lssl -lcrypto -lsecp256k1 -lz -lpthread -lm
+
+# Static MUSL build via Docker
+static:
+	./build_static.sh
+
+# Clean
+clean:
+	rm -f my_app build/my_app_static_*
+
+.PHONY: all static clean
+```
+
+## Deployment
+
+### Single Binary Deployment
+
+```bash
+# Copy to server
+scp build/my_app_static_x86_64 user@server:/opt/my-app/
+
+# Run (no dependencies needed!)
+ssh user@server
+/opt/my-app/my_app_static_x86_64
+```
+
+### SystemD Service
+
+```ini
+[Unit]
+Description=My Nostr Application
+After=network.target
+
+[Service]
+Type=simple
+User=myapp
+WorkingDirectory=/opt/my-app
+ExecStart=/opt/my-app/my_app_static_x86_64
+Restart=always
+RestartSec=5
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+```
+
+### Docker Container (Minimal)
+
+```dockerfile
+FROM scratch
+COPY my_app_static_x86_64 /app
+ENTRYPOINT ["/app"]
+```
+
+Build and run:
+```bash
+docker build -t my-app:latest .
+docker run --rm my-app:latest --help
+```
+
+## Reusing c-relay Files
+
+You can directly copy these files from c-relay:
+
+### 1. Dockerfile.alpine-musl
+```bash
+cp /path/to/c-relay/Dockerfile.alpine-musl ./Dockerfile.static
+```
+
+Then customize:
+- Change binary name (line 125)
+- Adjust source files (line 122-124)
+- Modify include paths (line 120-121)
+
+### 2. build_static.sh
+```bash
+cp /path/to/c-relay/build_static.sh ./
+```
+
+Then customize:
+- Change `OUTPUT_NAME` variable (lines 66, 70)
+- Update Docker image name (line 98)
+- Modify verification commands (lines 180-184)
+
+### 3. .dockerignore (Optional)
+```bash
+cp /path/to/c-relay/.dockerignore ./
+```
+
+Helps speed up Docker builds by excluding unnecessary files.
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Version Control**: Commit your Dockerfile and build script
+2. **Tag Builds**: Include git commit hash in binary version
+3. **Test Thoroughly**: Verify on multiple distributions
+4. **Document Dependencies**: List required NIPs and libraries
+5. **Automate**: Use CI/CD to build on every commit
+6. **Archive Binaries**: Keep old versions for rollback
+
+## Performance Comparison
+
+| Metric | MUSL Static | glibc Dynamic |
+|--------|-------------|---------------|
+| Binary Size | 7-10 MB | 2-3 MB + libs |
+| Startup Time | ~50ms | ~40ms |
+| Memory Usage | Similar | Similar |
+| Portability | ✓ Universal | ✗ System-dependent |
+| Deployment | Single file | Binary + libraries |

+## Example: Minimal Nostr Client
+
+Here's a complete example of building a minimal Nostr client:
+
+```c
+// minimal_client.c
+#include "nostr_core/nostr_core.h"
+#include <stdio.h>
+
+int main() {
+    // Generate keypair
+    char nsec[64], npub[64];
+    nostr_generate_keypair(nsec, npub);
+    
+    printf("Generated keypair:\n");
+    printf("Private key (nsec): %s\n", nsec);
+    printf("Public key (npub): %s\n", npub);
+    
+    // Create event
+    cJSON *event = nostr_create_event(1, "Hello, Nostr!", NULL);
+    nostr_sign_event(event, nsec);
+    
+    char *json = cJSON_Print(event);
+    printf("\nSigned event:\n%s\n", json);
+    
+    free(json);
+    cJSON_Delete(event);
+    return 0;
+}
+```
+
+**Dockerfile.static:**
+```dockerfile
+FROM alpine:3.19 AS builder

+    strip /build/minimal_client_static
+
+FROM scratch
+COPY --from=builder /build/minimal_client_static /minimal_client_static
+```
+
+**Build and run:**
+```bash
+docker build -f Dockerfile.static -t minimal-client .
+docker create --name temp minimal-client
+docker cp temp:/minimal_client_static ./
+docker rm temp
+
+./minimal_client_static
+```
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Static MUSL binaries provide the best portability for C applications. While they're slightly larger than dynamic binaries, the benefits of zero dependencies and universal compatibility make them ideal for:
+
+- Server deployments across different Linux distributions
+- Embedded systems and IoT devices
+- Docker containers (FROM scratch)
+- Distribution to users without dependency management
+- Long-term archival and reproducibility
+
+Follow this guide to create portable, self-contained binaries for your Nostr applications!
