Description

Welcome to the course Introduction to Zig. Zig is the new programming language that claims to be a C programming language replacement. It is modern and does not come with baggage like other programming languages. This course intends to be a good starting point for you to get started with the Zig programming language. You will learnBasic constructs like creating variables, constants, and assignmentHow to install and start using Go in editorsLearn basic programming constructs like if, else, while, for loop, etcCreating Zig functionsWriting unit testsLearn about defer, errors, switch statementLearn pointers, runtime safety, etcStructs, Arrays, Slices, Vectors, Anonymous Structs, Unions, EnumsLabeled loops and expressionsOptionalsLearn about unreachable, orelse, and more.Zig novels like Comptime, Payload Capture, Opaque, SentinelLearn about build systems - Build Modes, Outputting an Executable, Cross Compilation, Zig build, Builder, Modules, Build steps, Generating Documentation, etc.Standard Library in Zig. Basics of Allocators, Arraylist, Filesystem, Readers and Writers, Formatting, JSON, Random Numbers, Crypto, Hash Maps, Stacks, Threads, Sorting, Iterators, Formatting, etc.Working with C - ABI, C Primitive Types, Calling Conventions, Extern Structs, cImport, etc.Async in Zig. Basics of Async, Suspend / Resume, Async / Await, Basic Event Loop
