In this post I will give you some hints on how to get a smooth experience when dealing with the most common tasks required to solve each exercise.

Proponents of Zig claim that it does not have function colors. In this post, I attempt prove that it does.

Something simple that I failed to understand for too long

Programming blog exploring Zig, Elixir, Go, Testing, Design and Performance

Reactivity and zig, build systems like make, tup, and redo

I eventually developed an extremely crude shell script that automated at least a little bit of that.

But the other thing that kept happening is that I would need to run different release versions of Zig in addition to the dev build. (Some Zig software authors wisely pick a release version for their applications. So you need to use those release versions to build that application.)

So now I’ve got two scripts:

zignew extracts a new Zig build tarball and updates my symlink.

zigswitch uses fuzzy matching (so cool!) to let me pick from a menu of installed Zig versions and updates the symlink.
