Zig comptime

Purpose

Guide agents through Zig's comptime system: compile-time function evaluation, comptime type parameters, generics via anytype, type reflection with @typeInfo, and metaprogramming patterns that replace C++ templates and macros.

Triggers

• "How does comptime work in Zig?"
• "How do I write a generic function in Zig?"
• "How do I use @typeInfo for reflection?"
• "How do I generate code at compile time in Zig?"
• "How does anytype work in Zig?"
• "How do Zig generics compare to C++ templates?"
