Getty
Getty is a framework for building robust, optimal, and reusable (de)serializers in Zig.
- Compile-time (de)serialization.
- Out-of-the-box support for a variety of
std
types. - Granular customization for existing and remote types.
- Data models that serve as simple and generic baselines for (de)serializers.
Quick Start

const std = @import("std");
pub fn build(b: *std.Build) void {
const target = b.standardTargetOptions(.{});
const optimize = b.standardOptimizeOption(.{});
const opts = .{ .target = target, .optimize = optimize };
const json_mod = b.dependency("json", opts).module("json");
const exe = b.addExecutable(.{
.name = "quick-start",
.root_source_file = .{ .path = "src/main.zig" },
.target = target,
.optimize = optimize,
});
exe.addModule("json", json_mod);
const run_cmd = b.addRunArtifact(exe);
const run_step = b.step("run", "Run the app");
run_step.dependOn(&run_cmd.step);
}
