Programming languages come and go, but every once in a while, a new one emerges that disrupts how developers think about code. Zig is one such language. Built as a modern alternative to C, Zig is lightweight, predictable, and designed to put develope...
⚡ What is Zig? Zig is a modern, low-level programming language designed to be a better alternative to C. It offers: Manual memory management Cross-compilation out of the box No hidden control flow or allocations Compile-time metaprogramming (comp...
Libuv describes itself as a multi-platform support library with a focus on asynchronous I/O. It is widely used in many web servers (e.g., Kestrel) and runtimes such as Node.js and Python (via uvloop). As of Zig 0.14.0, there is no native async I/O, s...
When most people start programming, they're drawn to languages that make things easy. Python, JavaScript, and other high-level languages abstract away the messy details of memory management, system calls, and hardware interaction. This abstraction is...
There are many cases where maintaining a priority-based queue is essential. For instance, it may be required to rebalance a financial portfolio by reallocating assets with the highest deviation first. Another example is ranking updates when processin...
Zig & Go can be a convenient combination of programming languages. Zig provides fine-grained control over memory and performance, making it ideal to solve low-level tasks (similar to C), while Go excels in simplicity, easy of development, and built-i...
first of all i am low level systems engineer came from web development background and i tried golang, rust,c,c++ and zig Golang Go is a high level half staticlly typed and half dynmically typed compiled languge programming lnguage. And remember, in t...
C function take a function as parameter Take stb image library as example: int stbi_write_png_to_func(stbi_write_func *func, void *context, int w, int h, int comp, const void *data, int stride_in_bytes); int stbi_write_bmp_to_func(stbi_wri...
(Tested in Zig 0.13.0) Don’t use addCSourceFile to add a same C libraries that your dependent Zig libraries uses, it will produce an error like ld.lld: duplicate symbol: stbi_failure_reason. Only include the C header path using addIncludePath. For c...
Efficiently Reading Directory Contents in Zig with a Page Allocator Hey there welcome back to my Zig series, the language that I've been using a lot lately for my hobby projects. It's a language that keeps evolving and I'm excited to share more about...
