## What it is
A collection of portable, stand-alone C99 libraries and data structures such as hashmap, heap, linked list, logger, and ini parser. Each module is a single header/source pair that can be copied directly into a project with no build system required.

## Use cases
- add a hashmap or priority queue to a C project
- copy-and-paste portable C data structures without dependencies
- cross-platform mutex and condition variable wrappers for C
- lightweight logger for a C99 codebase
- parse ini files in C
- serialize protocol variables with a buffer utility

## When to choose
- you write C99 and want minimal, dependency-free data structures
- you need portability across Linux, macOS, Windows, and BSD with many architectures
- you prefer vendoring single header/source files over package managers

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured standard library replacement or STL-like generics
- your project is C++ and can use the standard library
- you need package-manager integration rather than copying source files

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: parser, logging, serialization, concurrency, benchmarking
- domain: developer-tools, cross-platform
- platform: c, windows, bsd, cross-platform
- tags: data-structures, c99, header-source-pair, hashmap, linked-list, priority-queue, collections, drag-and-drop, portable, algorithms, linux, macos
