This is Ryoko’s digital garden for v0.12.0 of the Zig programming language.
The notes aspire to Andy Matuschak’s concept of evergreen notes and are synthesized primarily from:
- the language reference;
- the language source code (mostly Sema.zig and test cases);
- discussion surrounding language issues, and
- first-hand experience writing Zig.
The notes are a work in progress and may contain inconsistencies and errors.
Ryoko hopes to cover all aspects of the Zig programming language in time. So far, she has written about pointers.
Because these are Ryoko’s personal notes that represent her evolving mental model of Zig, she’s not accepting pull requests. (She can’t learn effectively from notes she didn’t write on her own.) However, she welcomes issues describing suggestions and pointing out errors.
