This article is practically selling Zig. It has all the good stuff mentioned sans traits, and none of the bad stuff. The only new bad thing Zig brings to the table is immaturity. Zig is a much more modest incremental improvement over C whereas rust is trying to introduce this new big idea of the borrow checker.


Watch out for the inevitable copycat product called Zag that steals all your users by saying they zigged when they should have zagged.
