> I think Zig, D are examples of this niche but syntax wise they don't completely look like C. This is technically true, but someone that likes writing C while wanting a few extra features would mostly be able to write the same C code they always have if they stick to D's betterC. (I'm not familiar enough with Zig to comment on that.) Edit: Should also add that D now compiles C code, so a C programmer could continue to write C as they want, write a few D functions where those features help, and compile them without writing any binding code.
