I have zero C experience and I have to say the coffi library (clojure macros that wrap Java 22's Panama FFI) is super slick. Next thing I know I'm using pointers and arenas. I'm still amazed that it all works.

To be fair the SQLite C API docs are incredible and made the whole experience much more enjoyable.
