Replace `-lnanomsg` with `-lnng`.
It may be necessary to include additional system libraries, such as `-lpthread`, depending on your system.

## Initialization

It is necessary to explicitly initialize the library, using the [`nng_init`] function.
This must be called before any other function.

## Types

Sockets, dialers, and listeners in _libnanomsg_ are simple integers.

| Nanomsg API | NNG Equivalent | Notes |

There are some exceptions. Be aware that the numeric values are _not_ the same.

Applications using the legacy `libnanomsg` API will have to be updated to native _NNG_ interfaces.
See the [Migrating From libnanomsg](nanomsg.md) chapter for details.

## Library Initialization

It is now required for applications to initialize the library explicitly before using it.
This is done using the [`nng_init`] function.

## Transport Specific Functions

Transports have not needed to be registered for a long time now,
