Implementing your own libraries from scratch is good from a learning perspective. However, when writing a production code it is beneficial to use external libraries for the reasons such as: avoid reinventing the wheel, libraries widely used by programmers will be well written from security and performance standpoint and will be well tested.
C is a great language nevertheless!
