Yeah, but what does it do

The functions in this library solve or alleviate a bunch of commonplace problems/annoyances related to writing programs in C.

This is stuff not addressed in libc or GLib (or for which code therein might be overkill or disliked by the author).

The focus is on solving problems with a healthy dose of minimalism and performance (rarely orthogonal qualities, as it were).

This is not a hodgepodge - the code here is reliable and being used in the real world.

A quick rundown of the contents is available here.

A good place to see implementation details is in the test dir.

Building nonlibc

TLDR - use either:

1. nix-build
2. meson
