-Core Language
+It would be nice to cover the Standard Library as well, but this
+is currently challenging because the stdlib is evolving even
+faster than the core language (and that's saying something!).
+Not only would stdlib coverage change very rapidly, some exercises might even cease to be relevant entirely.
+
+Having said that, there are some stdlib features that are probably here
+to stay or are so important to understand that they are worth the
+extra effort to keep current.
+
+Conspicuously absent from Ziglings are a lot of string
+manipulation exercises. This is because Zig itself largely avoids
+dealing with strings. Hopefully there will be an obvious way to
+address this in the future. The Ziglings crew loves strings!
