stdc 0.1.0

A minimal-abstraction Standard C Library implementation for Dart. Designed for C programmers to seamlessly use familiar functions like stdc.printf or stdc.sin.

stdc

Note: The versioning has been intentionally reset to v0.1.0 (down from the initial placeholder 1.0.0) to properly track the early development and implementation phases of the library before a stable 1.0.0 release.

A zero-friction, minimal-abstraction Standard C Library implementation for Dart.

Designed specifically for C programmers who want to bring their familiar toolkit into the Dart ecosystem. stdc provides an authentic C experience without forcing you to learn new, convoluted abstractions.

The Philosophy

The beauty of stdc lies in its simplicity. You only need to remember one word: stdc.

Instead of dealing with fragmented namespaces like stdio.printf or io.printf, everything is directly accessible through the unified stdc interface. If you know C, you already know how to use this library.

import 'package:stdc/stdio.dart';

void main() {
  stdc.printf("Hello, %s!\n", ["World"]);
}

Features (Coming Soon)

We are working on bringing all the standard headers you know and love:

• <stdio.h> - Standard input/output functions (printf, sprintf, etc.)
• <stdlib.h> - Standard library utility functions (malloc, free, atoi, etc.)
• <string.h> - C-style string manipulation (strcpy, strlen, etc.)
• <math.h> - Mathematical functions

Getting Started

Add it to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  stdc: ^1.0.0

Import the headers you need and start writing C-style Dart!

import 'package:stdc/stdio.dart';
import 'package:stdc/string.dart';

void main() {
  var dest = stdc.strcpy("C programmers ", "welcome to Dart!");
  stdc.printf("%s\n", [dest]);
}
