 ## What is this?
-The standard library in C is much smaller than in Python or Go, for example. Those languages come with "batteries included" support for things like HTTP(S), JSON, timezones and async IO.

-C programmers, on the other hand, are often used to being "self-sufficient" - using a small number of libraries and implementing a lot of logic by own hands. This is due to the fact that C does not have an "all-in-one" package manager and package repository so far, and **the information on the Internet is so fragmented that almost forces one to lose all hope of finding a good library for his/her use case.** They don't know which packages are stable, fully functional, and trustworthy.

We want to include those well-maintained, well-documented, and well-tested libraries that are widely used and have a good reputation. **But even in these areas, it is possible to miss something with only a few searches and comparisons.
