Show HN: I Rewrote printf – Now 10x More Powerful (v1.3)

After months of development, I'm excited to release uprintf v1.3 - the ultimate platform-independent printf replacement that works everywhere from bare-metal microcontrollers to modern OSes. What's new in v1.3: -Template System -Now with {{variable}} substitution like modern template engines -Multi-Output Streaming -Broadcast to multiple destinations simultaneously (UART, files, network) -String Builder - Dynamic string building with efficient memory management -Text Transformation -Built-in uppercase, lowercase, capitalize, reverse, and ROT13 transforms -Advanced Formatting - Text alignment, wrapping, and pattern-based formatting -Event System - Hook into output streams for monitoring and processing -Stream Processors -Real-time character transformation pipelines -State Machine - Lightweight state management for complex workflows And it'
Read the rest
s still: -Zero dependencies -Header-only -Fully portable -MIT licensed Perfect for embedded systems, CLI tools, and anywhere you need powerful formatting without bloat. GitHub: https://github.com/Ferki-git-creator/Uprintf

Show HN: Uprintf a universal stb-style printf implementation for C (no OS)

I've been frustrated by the lack of a truly portable, no-dependency printf for embedded and kernel development. Most solutions are either too bloated or missing key features. So I built Uprintf. It's a single-header library that gives you full printf (flags, width, precision, floats, even custom specifiers) from bare metal to desktop, with zero dependencies or #ifdef hell. Key features: · One header file, no dependencies, no dynamic allocation · Full standard support: %d, %x, %f, %.*s, etc. · Extensible with custom format handlers (add %T for your project) · Configurable: disable floats, set locale, etc. · MIT Licensed. GitHub: https://github.com/Ferki-git-creator/Uprintf I'd love your feedback and contributions!
