It's also likely in your favorite distro's repo.

Among Pascal fans, Free Pascal is generally considered "the way" because it's closest to Turbo Pascal/Delphi.

Lazarus is the open Delphi libraries implementation that uses it.

That would look a lot like the Zig language, it's delightful to use.

What Rust is to C++, Zig is to C.

No, they don't relate at all in the same way. (And that's not to mention the lack of consensus about what Rust is to C++...)

That being said - Zig is quite the interesting language.

C has much lower language complexity but also requires longer onboarding times for engineers new to a project, at the cost of some sharp footguns that an experienced practitioner can avoid. Zig relative to Rust falls closer to this than a zero-cost abstraction based high-complexity language.

Obviously the devil is in the details and Zig and C are very different languages, but I think the analogy stands well.
