- Fully compliant with current C standards (C17 and upcoming C2x) and POSIX.
- Easily decomposed and embedded: Supplement or replace system C library
functionality easily. This is useful to get consistent math precision across
systems, or updated memory operations for newer microarchitectures. These
pieces will work on Linux, MacOS, Windows, and Fuchsia.
- The creation of fully static binaries without license implications.
- Increase whole program optimization opportunities for static binaries through
ability to inline math and memory operations.
- Reduce coding errors by coding in modern C++ through the use of lightweight
containers during coding that can be optimized away at runtime.
- Permit fuzzing and sanitizer instrumentation of user binaries including the
libc functions.
- A complete testsuite that tests both the public interface and internal
algorithms.
