Omg is that you Loris? Never ever have I written a post and got that amount of nice feedback. First the maintainer of ziglearn.org and now you.

This is the thing I love so much and if you guys combine this absolutely amazing attitude with some professional marketing I just see a bright, bright future for the Zig language.

I tried all the so called C replacements, and especially Rust. The Zig language is the only approach where one does not need an IQ of a 130 to learn it. Just please you guys do everything to not vanish into a absolute niche like D did, because D was and in my opinion still is such a great candidate/language, they just should have done better marketing.

I would be looking forward for your book and would be the very first one to buy it!!! Also, can I donate to ziglearn, Zig Showtime and/or the Zig Foundation?

In my opinion Linus should think about letting Zig into the kernel and not Rust :D. Maybe one day you guys will also achieve that.

Yo it's a-me, Loris!

Thank you again, we try :)

If you want to support the ZSF, here you can find all the information you need: https://ziglang.org/zsf/ I'm the one answering mails to [email protected], btw.

For ziglearn and Zig Showtime, I guess you should check our respective GitHub profiles.
