=Introduction=
I have dipped my toe into zig. I have done the [[https://codeberg.org/ziglings/exercises/ ziglings]]. I found this approach to learn a language quite hard. You do the exercises, but without doing a project straight after I feel I walk away with just an awareness which anyone reading this will say what did you expect<br>
What did shock me was the fact I cannot use await/async as it does not work for version 0.14.0-dev.2639+15fe99957<br>
I did not like 
*the way they managed pointers, it seemed just another way of doing it.
I did like 
*runtime compile time approach, the whole point of type language is to catch errors early
*errors approach, maybe a bit like Option, Result is rust
*pattern match on switch
*unreachable which can protect switch statements
Looking down the ziglings you can see some of the features of the language to give an overview. Been spending a lot of time on Rust and I am struggling to see more benefit in zig. I will google and report
