> The big difference to the Rust ecosystem (or rather the 'cc' crates.io package which AFAIK is the current standard solution) is that there will be a Clang toolchain package with integrated cross-compilation headers and libraries that is used across all platforms instead of relying on a "platform C/C++ compiler toolchain" - which is the actually brittle part: different compilers, linkers and platform SDKs used on different platforms). Yes, this is a very good point. Zig remains unique and impressive in that sense. The fact that Zig compiles the correct libc and other system libraries on demand is actually another one of those, “How come no other language considered doing this before Zig?!?”
