proposal: Write parts of KISS in C for portability/speedup about repo HOT 4 OPEN

Write all of kiss in C :P

from repo.

Relevant:

The C package manager implementation is still in the works though its
development process has changed. A library will be created and slowly over
time individual components of the shell package manager will be replaced with
C equivalents (while the library matures at the same time).

Users will be able to opt-in to running parts of the package manager (the slow
components especially) in C. This allows users to benefit from faster
implementations of components as they become available.

Once the library reaches a good level of usability, a full C package manager
implementation will be made available alongside the shell implementation.

A test-suite will also be created and will be used both by the shell and C
package manager implementations to ensure that no regressions are made between
changes.

I'm neutral on this as long as those parts will be optional and not installed by default.
