Description

section.description

Zig CLI Design: Secrets, Help Text, and Safe Defaults is a practical session for developers who want stronger engineering judgment around CLI design and secret-safe defaults.

Zig examples keep allocation, build, and platform choices visible while the fundamentals transfer to everyday software teams.

We will work through help output, argument validation, environment variables, secret redaction, and safe defaults. Participants leave with a review checklist, test ideas, and operational notes they can reuse on real projects.
