ZiggyZag
Zig shell workspace and terminal engineering lab
Inside the project
01 / 01Rendered project docs showing the terminal workspace direction.
The brief
A problem worth
building around.
Developer tools can become heavy, opaque, and difficult to reason about. A shell workspace needs fast startup, predictable process behavior, terminal ergonomics, and a clean path for agent-assisted workflows.
Our approach
Used Zig to explore explicit systems behavior and a small core architecture, with terminal usability features and a sidecar direction for lightweight agent integration.
