Hi, I cannot remember what got me started, but I put it in my mind to work on https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/9828 and got pretty far ( I think ).
If anyone wants to contribute as my time in the next 4 weeks is going to be limited: https://codeberg.org/Beneppe/Zar
Or just to report how you encounter an err, thread panic or memory leak 
.
Rest I wrote in the .md file, 5k loc are certainly overkill. But if were to polish to perfection before “publishing” then others might miss out on code they deem useful or educational.
Sry, but I just an enthusiast who works on programming stuff because he thinks its cool, not because he as any education in the field, let alone works there.
