Compile a Zig library for Arduino on PlatformIO
In my last stream, I needed to compile my Zig as library, in order to be used by PlatformIO to compile the program for my target architecture. Well so far I now how it's possible:

Compile a Zig library for Arduino on PlatformIO

It's time to get back to my sanctum and work on some interesting project!
My plan is to try compiling a simple #zig program on #PlatformIO targeting an #arduino board.

π€ Time to refactor! I'm going live from the Low-Level Programming Workbench to clean up my `wc` clone written in Zig. It's a learn-in-public session, so expect some fun detours!

π€ My `wc` clone in Zig is working, but is it fast? Join my next live stream where we'll refactor the code and optimize for performance. Let's hunt down some wasted CPU cycles! β‘

π€ Rewriting `wc` in Zig has been a lesson in assumptions. I found its character count is tied to the system locale, and in some scenarios just returning the byte count. My new post explores this encoding detail and its design implications.

π€ Plans have changed! My project to build the `wc` command in Zig is no longer a "rebuild"βit's a "rethink". After some learnings, I'm adjusting the design to be more explicit and make it my own.
Join me live to see how it unfolds!
