Have been doing this years Advent of Code in Zig because I've been exited to try it out for a long time now. After over the first bumps I really like how it keeps most of the simpleness and clearness of C while fixing a lot of annoyances. The really simple to grok but still incredibly powerful comptime idea is a good example. It adds generics and a much saner macro language without making something too complex or hard to understand. I still have great hopes for languages like Rust in the system programming area because of the guarantees it gives at compile time but when it comes to minimalism zig feels like a much better choice. I would really like the Std lib to be better documented though but I hear that is in the works.
