The reason why I sponsoring the zig software foundation.

I was sponsoring the Zig software foundation.

Zig is a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

I was interested in the Rust programming language, and I built a middleware in Rust for my work. I learned more about the Rust then I found the rust community is the poison. The leading team of Rust is a dictator. I’m not going to talk too much about rust, just provide some relevant information.

I try to seek a programming language that can be instead of Rust. Then I found the Zig programming language. The zig is also a low-level programming languge the same as C, C++, Rust. The Zig have many properties that I want.

No hidden control flow.
No preprocessor, no macros.

The Zig programming language is led by the BDFL (Benevolent Dictator for Life) but doesn’t mean the Zig community is a dictator.
