zig: Initialize a `zig build` library.
$ zig init-lib
try on your machine

The command "zig init-lib" is a command in the Zig programming language's command-line interface (CLI) used for initializing a new library project.

When you run the command "zig init-lib", it creates the necessary structure and files to start a new library project in Zig. It sets up the project with a basic directory structure, such as a "src" folder for source code, a "build.zig" file for build configuration, and a "zig.json" file to define metadata and dependencies for the library.

By using "zig init-lib", you can quickly set up a new library project in Zig, allowing you to focus on building your library's functionality without having to manually create the initial project structure yourself.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
