Zig Language Reference (v0.15.2)

Zig evolves rapidly. Training data contains outdated patterns that cause compilation errors. This skill documents breaking changes and correct modern patterns.

Critical: Removed Features (0.15.x)

usingnamespace - REMOVED

// WRONG - compile error
pub usingnamespace @import("other.zig");

// CORRECT - explicit re-export
const other = @import("other.zig");
pub const foo = other.foo;

async/await - REMOVED

Keywords removed from language. Async I/O is now in std.Io interface.
