Warning: This project is in early stages of development, the final product may differ from what you see now.
NanaZip is an open source file archiver intended for the modern Windows experience, forked from the source code of well-known open source file archiver 7-Zip 21.03.
We need help to translate NanaZip into native languages that have not been supported.
- You may meet the application crash in some cases in NanaZip 1.0 Preview 1 because there are some issues in the exception handler implementation from VC-LTL 5.x. I need to wait mingkuang (the author of VC-LTL) to fix it.
- Windows may show the contrast white icon in the taskbar when you using the contrast standard mode.
- 1.x Series
- Modernize the build toolchain with MSBuild for using MSIX packaging and parallel compilation support.
- Use VC-LTL 5.x toolchain to make the binary size even smaller than the official 7-Zip because we can use ucrtbase.dll directly and the optimizations from modern compile toolchain.
