  One could say the same thing about Rust, and at least that language has hit 1.0.

    It's not just a random remark, the self-hosted implementation of the compiler which is being worked on as we speak (type?) has multiple backends, one being the C backend which will be used to simplify the bootstrap process of Zig.

      Agreed, and Rust folks have been working on a gcc backend to get off the llvm monoculture too. As much as I lean on thinking Zig will achieve it first it seems unfair to make claims about things that haven't been done in a language that hasn't even been finalized as reasons it's better than a stable language in the same boat at the moment.
