:akko_shrug: Why Zig Is Quietly Doing What Rust Couldn't: Staying Simple | by Dax
｢ After years of wrestling Rust — the language that promised to save us all from C but somehow turned into a personality test — Zig felt like a warm, minimalist cabin in the middle of Rust's neon-lit city.
And that's the point.
Zig isn't trying to be the future. It's trying to stay sane ｣
@jbz Rust is turning into C++’s ugly brother. You can still do simple things with nice clean Rust but anything adventurous ends up looking like C++ and perl had a one-night stand resulting in a mongrel birth.
I love that writeup.
"Zig looks boring. Feels boring. Reads like a C project written by someone who finally went to therapy."
Thank you for sharing.
I will look at zig.
