Zig Error Sets in Applications: Boundaries, try, catch, and Recovery Paths

A practical two-hour session on Zig Error Sets in Applications, focused on Boundaries, try, catch, and Recovery Paths. Zig is used realistically for systems tooling, C interop, parsing, build workflows, and performance-minded components rather than pretending it is a full web platform.

Audience: entry-level and intermediate developers who want a practical engineering session, not a language tour.

Outcomes:

• Explain the practical boundaries of Zig Error Sets in Applications
• Apply Boundaries in a small working example
• Apply try in a small working example
• Apply catch in a small working example

Format: two hours with a short framing walkthrough, a concrete example, discussion of tradeoffs, and a closing checklist for practice.
