A half-hour to learn Zig

This is inspired by https://fasterthanli.me/blog/2020/a-half-hour-to-learn-rust/

Basics

the command zig run my_code.zig will compile and immediately run your Zig program. Each of these cells contains a zig program that you can try to run (some of them contain compile-time errors that you can comment out to play with)

How to write an awesome-wm config with Fennel

Awesome-WM is a X11 window manager, that is configured via Lua. Fennel is a Lisp for Lua. This shows a general setup of how to write your awesome-wm config using fennel directly without the compilation step (which would also work, but is not needed).

General setup

Fetch a recent Fennel version (the

echo -e "testing \033[48;5;88mCOLOR1\033[38;208;48;5;159mCOLOR2\033[m"

The color range of a 256 color terminal consists of 4 parts, often 5, in which case you actually get 258 colors:

Color numbers 0 to 7 are the default terminal colors, the actual RGB value of which is not standardized and can often be configured.
Color numbers 8 to 15 are the "bright" colors. Most of the time these are a lighter shade of the color with index - 8. They are also not standardized and can often be configured. Depending on terminal and shell, they are often used instead of or in conjunction with bold font faces.
Color numbers 16 to 231 are RGB colors. These 216 colors are defined by 6 values on each of the three RGB axes. That is, instead of values 0 - 255, each color only ranges from 0 - 5.

	// anytime an HTTP request is made, the store is updated and all subscribers are notified.
	export default function(initial) {

	// define a request function that will do `fetch` and update store when request finishes
	store.request = async (method, url, params=null) => {

	* One of the questions that recently came up is how to remove vowels from Hebrew characters in Unicode
	* (or any other similar language). A quick look at Hebrew Unicode chart shows that the vowels are all
	* located between 0x0591 (1425) and 0x05C7 (1479). With this and Javascript's charCodeAt function, it
	* is trivial to strip them out with Javascript as follows
