Where would I read more about Zig? Not that I have cycles to spare, but I think a fair bit about moving from C. For example, I maintain an ASN.1 compiler written in C, and I hate C, so I made it emit a JSON AST of ASN.1 modules, and now a friend of mine just wrote a backend in Swift that takes that JSON AST output and produces Swift code / templates. Leaving C behind requires a good path for porting legacy C to the new thing, or else tons of time and mindshare to get new things built. So D and Zig are very appealing.
