It's good to have more documentation on Zig by the community, but I'm gonna throw in a bit of criticism.

One major thing I appreciate about the official Zig Language Reference is that it is no-pagination single html page that I can ctrl+f https://ziglang.org/documentation/master/ I wish more projects published their docs like that.

When I read, my mouse is busy selecting different parts of the text that I'm thinking about.

1. I don't want to move my mouse off the text to click the "next" button.

2. I don't want to move my mouse off the text to expand TOC items.

3. I don't want to waste my time on switching between pages back and forth.

I prefer the raw text on a long scrollable, non-interactive page with TOC on the side.

Otherwise, great to see more guides on the Zig topic.
