libCat is a non-POSIX compliant C++26 runtime. It has no pthreads nor =malloc()=, and by extension no exceptions. It has type-safe arithmetic, SIMD, fast syscalls, interfaces (also known as facades), hierarchical memory allocators, and value-based error-handling, among many other features.

More essays and videos will come in the future.

• Building libCat requires a development version of GCC 15 from the =trunk= branch. Compiling libCat is only tested using =ninja=. #+BEGIN_SRC $ cmake -B build/ -G 'Ninja Multi-Config' $ cmake --build build/ #or: ninja -C build/ $ ./build/tests/Debug/unit_tests #+END_SRC

The =.clang-format= and =.clang-tidy= configurations are only compatible with recent builds of clang-tools from the =main= branch.
