Wow, this is a great talk! Thanks Johnny for going on the arduous journey of exposing the win32 API to Zig and helping other programming languages do the same!
Zig is the first programming language I see, where bindings don't make me want to vomit and have a natural and convenient way of accessing them. I got really mad when I noticed how broken c-bindings in Rust are (esp. when it comes to IDE integration and knowing symbol names before compiletime) .
I’m just listening to a bunch of old zig related content and now I can’t help but want to get good with it… I’d just like to note, that Loris is a great host! He always has some questions or things to talk about even if the chat doesn’t… thank you Loris!

This makes zig a great choices for building new windows programs.
Thanks for your work!

This is incredible work can't wait to have a play around with this!
Very, very interesting talk! Thanks a bunch!
This is awesome work. Thank you!
Awesome work Jonathan!
Incredible work
good talk, the compression made everything unreadable though
Where did you get the libraries from, though
Now all we need is MacOS APIs!
Right when I'd given up on doing opengl stuff without glfw!
Should I be happy? 9_9
Great idea and a lot of work has been done. However, this does not build on the current version of zig - "error: FileNotFound"
Any work done to support windows is work wasted...
I hope zigup will be less invasive and A LOT more transparent than rustup - which managed to iritate me so much, I completely lost interest in rust.
this looks like classic problems with new languages ..they don't co-operate with windows api and that sucks
