May 2026: Key feature delivery for protocolbuffers/protobuf focused on enabling multi-language support via Bazel. Implemented Bazel build targets for standalone protoc plugins, making binaries available for all built-in languages (protoc-gen-cpp, protoc-gen-csharp, protoc-gen-java, protoc-gen-kotlin, protoc-gen-objectivec, protoc-gen-php, protoc-gen-python, protoc-gen-pyi, protoc-gen-ruby, protoc-gen-rust). This follow-up, driven by feedback, scopes changes to Bazel targets only and closes issue #23919. Commit 81880fad1673797b6326a91582b2bf77069d505d documents the addition of these targets. Impact: reduces integration friction in multi-language environments, accelerating adoption of protobuf tooling across diverse tech stacks. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Bazel build system, protobuf plugin architecture, cross-language tooling, release engineering, and build-target tuning.
