Memory management? Or a stricter type system?

- throw16180339 2y agoZig isn't memory safe, has regular breaking changes, and doesn't have a garbage collector.
- commandersaki 2y agoFirst reason in my mind is there isn't an abundance of Zig programmers internally in Microsoft, in the job market, and in open source. It's probably a fine choice if you're using it for your passion project e.g. Hashimoto.
- pjmlp 2y agoZig still isn't production ready and isn't memory safe as Go, most likely.
