Zig doesn't promise language or stdlib stability yet, but in reality the changes are quite manageable. And it's already good enough for some high-profile real-world projects like Bun (https://bun.sh/ https://bun.sh/), Tigerbeetle (https://tigerbeetle.com/ https://tigerbeetle.com/) or Ghostty (https://ghostty.org/ https://ghostty.org/).
In the end, language stability isn't as important as it used to be, people are quite used to fixing their code when upgrading dependencies to a new major version for instance.
