Show HN: Stb_zip – header-only C ZIP parser, zero dependencies, fast

1•Forgret•13h ago
I've built a small, header-only C library to parse ZIP archives with no external dependencies. It works on everything from embedded devices to desktop games and supports both "store" and "deflate" compression.

Benchmarks (Core i7-12700K, 32GB RAM): - Decompress 1GB: 0.8s (2.1x faster than miniz) - Parse 100k files: 12ms (3.2x faster) - CRC32 of 1GB: 0.2s (5.5x faster)
