# Description

Closes #5940  

## Integration

Node devs that rely on templates' nodes binaries for minimal or
parachain would need to follow the updated templates' README.mds again
to find how to build the nodes' binaries.

## Review Notes

Conditional compilation of virtual workspaces would compile the
`members` list as if we passed `--workspace` flag to `cargo build` ,
except when adding a `default-members` list which will be used for any
cargo command executed in the virtual workspace root. To build the full
members list needs passing `--workspace` flag.

crate, but it feels too complex since all code needs to be feature
guarded. I haven't tried it but technically speaking it might work. I
think though it looks awkward and my opinion is that the alternative is
better.
- defining features in the virtual workspace's Cargo.toml doesn't work
(thought that I mig...
