Zig in 30 Minutes
Hey man, first of all thanks a lot for you efforts. This and ziglearn.org are just great as a starting point.If I may here are three additional pieces of information that if added to your documentation will clarify some more things for the beginner/reader:1) Arrays and Slices sectionArrays in Zig are values. They store the pointer and the length, but an array is a value so the raw pointer can never be accesses unless....You coerce the array to a slice. A slice reveals a pointer to you.2) Add tagged unions (I do not understand what they are but they exist, maybe some fellow reader here could help me)3) If, for, while and switch can ALSO BE EXPRESSIONS!Now to the part that does not address you directly but everyone.These tutorials are great, but they are the mere starting point. I admire Zig and its design, I admire Andrew and that awesome community, I love Zig Showtime and everything. But there are two problems I have with Zig that annoy me and that is only because I REALLY want to learn it and ditch C already:*  I am trying to figure out how to do system's programming. Like use all the system calls and their system library wrapper equivalent's that I am so used to in C. After an hour of research on the net I could not even figure out how to read in and go through the contents of a file (fread, fstat, fgets, fopen). That stuff needs to go into the official documentation or at least to ziglearn.org* The same way the Zig compiler is awesome the underlying build file you often wanna write is just horribly documented. I don't understand half of it and it changes a lot. Andrew should really politely ask people on the internet to take down old repos and blog entries.
Please document the build system and build file writing better.
