v1.7.0
In this release we essentially updated the book to the latest stable release of Zig (0.16).
Not only that, the current version of the book also compiles now successfully in Windows. This was not previously possible because the previous versions of the book tried to use resources from the OS that were available only at runtime in Windows. So, this is a big win for the community, now that the book can be compiled in a different OS.
