Can Zig also be used to compile static libraries for iOS and Android?

There's no good reason why not. Zig is, after all, a full C compiler so it can certainly create C libraries.

You can create a full Zig program to run on Android: https://archive.fosdem.org/2021/schedule/event/zig_android/

iOS: https://www.jakubkonka.com/2022/04/30/ios-dx-with-zig-milan-...
