My understanding is Zig authors have the ambition to use zig as a build system for C projects (and more?). I know that a few projects have already been converted either unofficially (ffmpeg and its dependencies) or officially (raylib). Is there a list somewhere of those projects that has been “zigged” ? What I could gather for now: - libz: [GitHub - andrewrk/libz: zlib with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/libz) - libmp3lame: [GitHub - andrewrk/libmp3lame: libmp3lame with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/libmp3lame) - libvorbis: [GitHub - andrewrk/libvorbis: libvorbis with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/libvorbis) - libogg: [GitHub - andrewrk/libogg: libogg with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/libogg) - nasm: [GitHub - andrewrk/nasm: nasm with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/nasm) - ffmpeg: [GitHub - andrewrk/ffmpeg: FFmpeg Zig package](https://github.com/andrewrk/ffmpeg) - SDL: [GitHub - allyourcodebase/SDL: SDL with the build system replaced by Zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/SDL) - libebur128: [GitHub - andrewrk/libebur128: libebur128 with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/libebur128) - pulseaudio: [GitHub - andrewrk/pulseaudio: pulseaudio with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/pulseaudio) - libchromaprint: [GitHub - andrewrk/libchromaprint: chromaprint with the build system replaced by zig](https://github.com/andrewrk/libchromaprint) - raylib: [GitHub - raysan5/raylib: A simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming](https://github.com/raysan5/raylib/) - openssl: [GitHub - kassane/openssl-zig: TLS/SSL and crypto library (uses Zig Build)](https://github.com/kassane/openssl-zig) - wolfssl: [GitHub - kassane/wolfssl: WolfSSL library - Using Zig Build](https://github.com/kassane/wolfssl) - fmt: [GitHub - kassane/fmt: A modern formatting library (uses zig build-system)](https://github.com/kassane/fmt) - boost unordered: [GitHub - kassane/unordered: Boost.org unordered module (uses zig build)](https://github.com/kassane/unordered) - boost async: [GitHub - kassane/cobalt: Coroutines for C++20 & asio (uses zig build for testing)](https://github.com/kassane/async) - json [GitHub - kassane/json: JSON for Modern C++ (uses zig build-system)](https://github.com/kassane/json) - context [GitHub - kassane/context: `boost.context` library using zig build](https://github.com/kassane/context) - fiber [GitHub - kassane/fiber: userland threads uses zig build](https://github.com/kassane/fiber) - outcome [GitHub - kassane/outcome: Provides very lightweight outcome\ and result\ (non-Boost edition) (uses zig build-system)](https://github.com/kassane/outcome) - Standalone-Server [GitHub - kassane/Standalone-Server: Asio standalone C++ HTTP/S Server (uses zig build-system)](https://github.com/kassane/Standalone-Server) - asio [GitHub - kassane/asio: Asio C++ Library (uses zig build-system)](https://github.com/kassane/asio) - observable\_unique\_ptr [GitHub - kassane/observable\_unique\_ptr: Unique-ownership smart pointers with observable lifetime. (uses zig build)](https://github.com/kassane/observable_unique_ptr) - Catch2 [GitHub - kassane/Catch2: A modern, C++-native, test framework for unit-tests, TDD and BDD - using C++14, C++17 and later (C++11 support is in v2.x branch, and C++03 on the Catch1.x branch) - uses zig build-system](https://github.com/kassane/Catch2) - cppfront-zigbuild [GitHub - kassane/cppfront-zigbuild: Build Cppfront w/ zig build](https://github.com/kassane/cppfront-zigbuild) - hana [GitHub - kassane/hana: Your standard library for metaprogramming (uses zig build-system)](https://github.com/kassane/hana) - intrusive [GitHub - kassane/intrusive: Boost.org intrusive module (uses zig build)](https://github.com/kassane/intrusive) - range-v3 [GitHub - kassane/range-v3: Range library for C++14/17/20, basis for C++20's std::ranges (uses zig build-system)](https://github.com/kassane/range-v3) - zig-libxml2 [GitHub - kassane/zig-libxml2: libxml2 built using Zig build system](https://github.com/kassane/zig-libxml2) - benchmark [GitHub - kassane/benchmark: A microbenchmark support library (uses zig build)](https://github.com/kassane/benchmark) Note that I didn’t check the status of those projects. ---

This is a great idea - do we have a curated list of projects? If not, we should probably make one. ---

Thanks for sharing, this is really useful for C programmers to pick Zig. > **[GitHub - zigcc/awesome-zig: A collection of some awesome public Zig...](https://github.com/zigcc/awesome-zig)** > > A collection of some awesome public Zig programming language projects. - zigcc/awesome-zig Above repo is an awesome zig list maintained by me and some friends, will add those project later.
