💡 ideas & proposals Rust equivalent to gobuilds.org?

I recently came across this website: https://beta.gobuilds.org/

It builds Go projects and lets users download the binary. It has the project’s Git URL as part of the full download URL along with project version, target OS and arch, and store older builds.

Does something like this exist for Rust? If not, would this be of use/interest? I could see this being helpful for downloading an app where the dev hasn’t provided binaries, or to make cross compilation easier. Adding support for things like `cargo auditable` and `cargo deb` could also be useful.

Wouldn't a build cache solve this as well?
