Libft – Enhanced Standard C Library

This project is a personal, enhanced version of the 42 school's libft. It reimplements key standard C library functions while introducing new utilities and features designed to support a wide range of C projects — from basic parsing to more complex memory and list manipulations.

The goal is to provide a solid foundation that can be reused across multiple 42 and personal projects, with ongoing improvements and additions.

✨ Highlights

  • Full reimplementation of standard libc functions using only allowed functions
  • Bonus utility functions for memory, strings, and character processing
  • Linked list manipulation support (t_list and related helpers)
  • Modular, norm-compliant, and easy to maintain
  • Ready to plug into 42 projects
  • Continuously updated with new utilities and helper functions

🛠️ Build Instructions

To compile the library:

make

This will generate the libft.a static library file.

📚 How to Use

  1. Include the main header in your C file:
#include "libft.h"
  1. Link the library during compilation:
gcc your_code.c -L. -lft
  1. Use any of available functions

✅ Makefile Targets

make – compiles the library

make clean – removes object files

make fclean – removes object files and the compiled library

make re – cleans and rebuilds the library
