zig-playdate-template github

this project was what i used to teach myself zig. i was curious about the playdate sdk and originally wanted to try using the c api directly (i have previous experience with c++ only and wanted to get a feel for how different c would be).

the hardest part was figuring out how to compile a valid .pdx file for the playdate, but with the help of danb91's playdate starting point i was able to get something working. i eventually moved away from that approach and into something that includes the playdate c header directly in zig.

next time i'll try to write posts as i figure this out so that i have something a bit more substantial to write about.
