This is the official repository for the book "Introduction to Zig: a project-based Book", written by Pedro Duarte Faria. To know more about the book, check out the About this book section below. You can read the current version of the book in your web browser. The book is built using the publishing system Quarto in conjunction with a little bit of R code (zig_engine.R), which is responsible for calling the Zig compiler to compile and run the Zig code examples.
