  >Zig has known bugs and even some miscompilations. >Zig is immature. Even with Zig 0.9.1, working on a non-trivial project using Zig will likely require participating in the development process. >When Zig reaches 1.0.0, a new requirement for Tier 1 Support will be 0 known bugs for that target. >Zig self-hosted compiler progress report: ( 9 Feb 2022 ) * 171,020 lines of code * Behavior Tests Passing: - LLVM backend: 681/1064 (64%) - WASM: 440/1064 (41%) - C backend: 409/1064 (38%) - x86: 130/1064 (12%) - ARM: 104/1064 (10%) I think We are at least 2 years away from 1.0

    It is so refreshing to see this featured so prominently. Gives me a lot more trust in the project.

    These are the numbers for the self-hosted (ie written in Zig) stage compiler, which is not what the current release contains. Target is apparently May for the 0.10.0 release containing this work.
