I have been reading about this new language for a while. It’s a C competitor, very slim language with very interesting choices, like supporting cross platform compilation out of the box, supports compiling C/C++ code (and can be used as a drop in replacement for C) to the point in can be used as replacement of ©make and executables are very small.
But, like all languages, adoption is what makes the difference. And we don’t know how it goes.
Is anyone actually using Zig right now? Any thoughts?
Definitely sounds like a well thought out upgrade path. But I don’t feel like an upgrade path is a killer feature in of itself. I think I’d have to have a play with it to see if there is something to make transitioning worthwhile.
