Is there a good "Why Zig" writeup motivating the language?
I've been looking around their web site and the only thing I could find was pretty generic:
Zig is a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

- curtisf 5y agoYes, there is a "why Zig when..." page in the "learn" section: https://ziglang.org/learn/why_zig_rust_d_cpp/ https://ziglang.org/learn/why_zig_rust_d_cpp/
- von_lohengramm 5y agoIn addition to the other recommendations, the Zig Zen[0] and The Road to Zig 1.0[1] are pretty convincing.

- animesh 5y agoThat Road to Zig talk is a must watch. I keep coming back to it. More than the language, I love how much conviction Andrew has in his vision for Zig.
