Type-safe HTML templating in Zig using comptime metaprogramming

lukaslalinsky · hn · 2026-10-12

The author walks through building type-safe HTML templates in Zig, leveraging comptime metaprogramming to validate template structure and variable interpolation at compile time. Escaping is handled automatically and type mismatches fail the build, eliminating a whole class of string-concatenation and XSS bugs. A useful read for Zig practitioners and anyone interested in compile-time guarantees.
