I'm about to start a little fun project where it would be nice to be able to interact with C++ object files.
I was planning on using Nim but might give Zig a try also.
It looks really cool. I feel like Nim and Zig both fill a similar niche, maybe Zig aiming more towards the lower level / even embedded.
That's just my impression, not having used either in anger.
I agree on the C++ puzzle solving thing, though in a way it's almost part of the appeal!
