I haven’t so far found any zig code terribly hard to reason about, and it’s important to know that compile time type crafting (currently) doesn’t support decls.

I haven’t so far found any zig code terribly hard to reason about, and it’s important to know that compile time type crafting (currently) doesn’t support decls. Although you can madness your way around that, theres idiomatic ways to manage this. Comptime is definitely very powerful, and even the top people using zig frown upon “magic”. But to be completely honest, “magic” shit just happens all the time if you enable it. Rust macro abuse to get “magic” comes to mind. If it happens in rust, it’ll certainly happen in zig.
