I like Zig but stopped learning it when I realized that all project based on it requires a specific version of the compiler to build.

The situation will improve once they release a stable 1.0 version.

Until then, use mise, nix, docker, or something similar. (You should be doing this anyway for projects in all languages if you care about them building on anyone's machine other than your own.)

I would be interested to learn why that is a problem. As a new Rust learner, I am curious.
