https://ziglearn.org/ should be up to date for 0.7.0 already. Do have a peak if you haven't yet learned how to use Zig; the first chapter (most of the language) should be readable in under an hour.

So is the following paragraph (that shows up after the first couple of paragraphs) there for future-proofing the guide, or a sign that updated guide hasn't actually been released yet? Because both interpretations sound reasonable to me

> This guide assumes you’re using a master build of Zig as opposed to the latest major release, which means downloading a binary from the site or compiling from source; the version of Zig in your package manager is likely outdated. This guide does not support the 0.7 build of Zig.

For future proofing, I just don't want to exactly support tagged releases as of now. Zig could release breaking changes next week and I would update the guide to fit that; master is followed.
