There's a lot to do, sure, but while we don't have yet swats of learning materials for complete newcomers, I consider Zig to be today the cheapest way of getting into "systems" programming for people that never did it before.
I run Zig SHOWTIME [1] and we have quite a few talks that introduce basic concepts to people that aren't used to systems programming. Again, not yet enough to consider the problem solved, but it's a step in the right direction and we'll build a bigger library as more people join the community.
