Among all the other suggestions, I appreciate the refinement to the type system that zig has over c. Like bools and ints are distinct types, built in slice types to associate a pointer and length, arrays have a length, well-defined integer sizes (i32 for example), optional, errors, etc. it’s little things like that which make a language much easier to use in the long run.
