I still don’t get the point of zig, at least not from this post? I really don’t want to do memory management manually. I actually think rust is pretty well designed, but allows you to write very complex code. go tries really hard to keep it simple but at the cost of resisting modern features.
If you don't want to do memory management manually, then you're not the intended target audience for Zig. It's a language where any piece of code that needs to do heap allocation has to receive an allocator as an explicit argument in order to be able to allocate anything at all.
