A great language with a terrible LSP that is incapable of autocompleting ANYTHING and what is possibly the worst build system I have ever used.
On top of that it keeps changing, making it impossible to figure out how to use it.
It is truly a shame ... I will be going back to Hare.

It has the worst syntax I have ever seen.

What don't you like about the build system? I see more and more C projects adopting it so I have to imagine it's more sensible of a choice than cmake. If it's good enough for other languages to adopt it I question how bad it could really be, although C's complete lack of a standard in that regard makes it obviously fall into the lowest tier so it's not a high bar to overcome.

>the language doesn't allow unused variables
>the LSP automatically insert the variable discard operator for you so the compiler doesn't complain
Excellent design choices on both sides..

some of the ideas in zig are sort of good and andrew is a bright guy but it's not really that groundbreaking of a language. just use c

isn't it obvious that they're going around adding and maintaining zig builds on all these projects to increase their exposure? it's clever i suppose since you think a consensus is forming. i'm not anti-zig but don't get fooled by its "growth"

If your language requieres a LSP then your language is not so great.

kek by next year Zig and Rust would merge to form the one Troon language.
