Original Length: 2784 words, 12 minutes

This post discusses the author's transition from writing Rust to writing Zig full-time. It explores the different styles of writing software and compares two projects, rust-analyzer and TigerBeetle, which represent different approaches to software engineering. The post highlights the reliability and predictability of TigerBeetle, a distributed database written in Zig, and the emphasis on bug-free programs in rust-analyzer, an LSP server for Rust. The author also discusses the strengths and weaknesses of Zig compared to Rust, including Zig's focus on simplicity and resource management. The post concludes with a wishlist for Zig, including improvements in semantics, IDE support, and automation.
