This is so cool! I'm really impressed with what I've seen out of Zig so far. I need to come up with a project to try it out with. It seems like a great successor to C

Yep. Zig is shaping up to be the low-level programming language I've been waiting for to replace C++ for me. It just needs to mature and stabilize a bit before it's production-quality.

Why not rust?

I've been doing Advent of Code in Zig. It's a far cry from "real world" programming, but still a decent way to get a feel for the language.

Do you have a public repo of your Advent code? I started out trying to use Zig but couldn’t find documentation on how to complete even basic tasks (like passing a filename as a command line arg, then opening and reading a file line by line), so I gave up. Maybe seeing a repo of good Zig code accomplishing these tasks would get me going.
