About
z-libs is the umbrella organization dedicated to modernizing systems programming without abandoning the C ecosystem. We are the team behind Zen C, the viral systems language, and a suite of header-only C/C++ libraries focused on high-performance and ergonomics.
Our Flagship Projects
- Zen C: A modern language that solves C pain-points without leaving it. It features strong type safety, generics, and defer resource management, all while compiling to human-readable C.
- The z-libs Suite: A collection of header-only, zero-dependency C libraries designed to outperform standard implementations. Some of them are:
Why Sponsor Us?
We are building the post-C infrastructure. Your sponsorship directly supports:
- Compiler development: Ensuring Zen C remains stable, self-hosting, and production-ready.
- Ecosystem growth: Maintaining many libraries (like zfile, zthread, zwasm) and developer tooling.
- Interoperability research: We have already integrated with CUDA (GPU computing) and Cosmopolitan Libc (Portable Executables), and have further interoperability plans.
We are 100% open-source and community-driven. Join us in building the future of C.
