  3. zerl

    A Zig library to idiomatically communicate with other BEAM nodes

    Hey HN, this is a small project myself and closer friends have been building on our free time (https://github.com/Dr-Nekoma/lyceum), it finally reached 0.1.0, we are open to feedback!

    The original idea was to experiment with Zig + Raylib, eventually we wrote a small server in Erlang as well. We started by first interacting with Erlang via its C bindings, but this eventually led to some of us to prototyping our own tooling to better integrate Zig types with Erlang, we called such tool "zerl" as its avaliable here https://github.com/dont-rely-on-nulls/zerl.

    All the developers are NixOS users, to the tooling heavily relies on Nix as well.

  4. erlando

    Discontinued Erlando

    For reference: https://github.com/rabbitmq/erlando - it doesn't look maintained, but it's probably still usable; otherwise, you might get some inspiration from the code :)

  5. mach

    zig game engine & graphics toolkit

    Did you happen to tinker with https://machengine.org/ it's a Zig game engine & graphics toolkit?
