    It doesn't. This article doesn't measure that, and full screen works differently. This article also only measures gnome.

    You could probably make a good docs site in hugo with enough work, but Docusaurus has pretty much everything I need out of the box (and is less annoying to extend). I think it real…

    Small self plug: https://zig.guide is ready for Zig 0.12. Some notable changes in zig.guide since Zig 0.11 came out: - Changed from following master, to following major releases (Z…

    I actually saw multiple people in the Zig core team (and others) actively working on the Zig compiler in person this weekend! Development may have slowed in the last 2 weeks or so …

    Author here, I'm just showing how I did it. It took a few minutes to do it for myself - figured it would be worth the 15 minutes or so it'd take to write it down. Just sharing my p…

    I think Zig does cross compilation (ignoring for the moment, projects with C dependencies) better because it comes out-of-the-box with the libraries and headers needed to target a …

    This is silly. If you make code that requires allocation and does not have an allocator passed into it, there is literally nothing stopping you from allocating anyway. Zig does not…

    The concept of the heap is in the userspace of the language. This terminology is confusing to someone thinking of usermode/kernelmode - this is instead talking of userspace versus …

    For future proofing, I just don't want to exactly support tagged releases as of now. Zig could release breaking changes next week and I would update the guide to fit that; master i…

    https://ziglearn.org/ should be up to date for 0.7.0 already. Do have a peak if you haven't yet learned how to use Zig; the first chapter (most of the language) should be readable …
