Awesome Zig

This repository lists "awesome" projects written in Zig, maintained by ZigCC community.

Important

The word "awesome" does not signify stability; instead, it might suggest something is somewhat old-fashioned or lacking novelty. Hence, exercise caution.

Contributing

If you find a well-maintained library that is not yet included here, welcome to submit it via a pull request. Just be sure to execute make all before open PR.
