    I’ve been enjoying zig.

    It feels like when I go to write C, but without a bunch of code churn/copy paste on getting just the right memory management interface.

    It’s not perfect, and the API churn makes it really annoying to find decent documentation. But it’s fun.

        I think the next language I’ll learn will be rust, but Odin has been recommended to me a couple times now.

        I do want to try that one out

          Same boat, but be warned that Zig and Odin are C-like, while Rust is C++ like. The different workflow needs some getting used to.

            Thanks.

            I always avoided c++ for its complexity and bad error messages.

            If rust is better at that then I’ll give it an honest shot.
