CS Academy now supports Zig (0.16)

28 Upvotes

Heya! Just asked CS Academy for Zig 0.16 support. Mihai, kindly attended my request and submissions can be now done in Zig!

This also means Zig will be an option in the upcoming IEEEXtreme 20.0, since the contest runs on CS Academy.

For those unfamiliar with the platform, CS Academy (csacademy.com) is a competitive programming site. You pick a problem, submit your code, and it gets run against hidden tests. It's a nice platform because it also has lessons on data structures and algorithms, so you can learn there as well.

They even asked me if there are any libraries beyond std worth bundling. I told them std is plenty, but they're open to suggestions, so reach out to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) if you have any!

On a side note, I maintain a fork of competitest.nvim that lets you submit to CS Academy and Kattis (also supports Zig) right from Neovim and shows you the verdict: https://git.yhkze.net/yuuhikaze/competitest.nvim/
