This repo contains one person's completed solutions to Ziglings, a learn-by-fixing course for the Zig programming language. Ziglings itself is a collection of tiny broken programs that you repair, learning the language through hands-on practice rather than reading tutorials. The way it works is straightforward: each exercise is a small Zig program with intentional bugs or missing pieces. You run a build command, it tells you what's wrong, and you fix it. Once your fix passes, you move to the next exercise. The exercises progress through core language concepts like variables, arrays, strings, conditionals, loops, functions, error handling, structs, pointers, and more advanced topics like comptime and interfaces. You can also jump to specific exercises or run them individually if you want to focus on a particular concept. This specific repo is someone's personal answer key. If you're working through Ziglings yourself and get stuck on an exercise, you could look here to see how another learner solved it. The broader Ziglings project is designed for people who already know how to program but are new to Zig specifically. You don't need prior experience with systems languages like C, though complete beginners to programming may find it challenging. One thing worth noting: Zig is still under active development and doesn't have a stable 1.0 release yet. The exercises track development builds of the compiler rather than official releases, which means things can break when the language changes. The project keeps a changelog of version-specific fixes for exactly this reason. There are also community-maintained branches for older Zig versions if you can't easily upgrade. The exercises cover the core language but deliberately skip the standard library, keeping scope focused on syntax and language fundamentals rather than ecosystem tooling.
