I think this marks a cross-road: you build a "batteries included" programming language (python, Go style) or an artisan one (like C, Rust).<p>Zig is the batteries included one, with an <i>optional</i> standard library. Makes it truly versatile in my opinion: I have played with pure systems programming[1], played with bpf and will run it on a microcontroller in the upcoming workshop[2]. After 15 years being a professional in tech I am excited about a technology again. :)<p>[1]: <a href="https://git.jakstys.lt/motiejus/turbonss" rel="nofollow">https://git.jakstys.lt/motiejus/turbonss</a>

"Note: this server hasn't been tested very well, it works in the most simple of cases (like the above), but this is more a POC than a complete http server"<p>Isn't it too early to merge this then?
