Huh, it was the 0.14 version number for me.
- dtech 1y ago0.x doesn't say as much as it used to 20 years ago, many fine projects keep it for way too long.
- eddythompson80 1y agoZig has a pretty well documented 1.0 goals. It was the first thing I heard about zig from Andrew about. https://youtu.be/5eL_LcxwwHg https://youtu.be/5eL_LcxwwHg
- arp242 1y agoYes, that was the point. To understand what that "0.14" means, we need to know those "well documented 1.0 goals" and some hour long YouTube video. That is, merely the "0.14 version number" without context is not enough, like your previous comment said.
- eddythompson80 1y agoYou look at the version, the milestones https://github.com/ziglang/zig/milestones https://github.com/ziglang/zig/milestones, and it makes sense. The YouTube video is just more proof. Picking up a 0.14 software without looking the most basic thing about it like “oh, what kind of 0.14 is this” then complaining that “it’s not ready for prime time” is odd behavior
