It's "Zig" not "Zag". https://ziglang.org/ Zig is under heavy development, but there's a single page https://ziglang.org/documentation/0.12.0/ that is a reasonably comprehensive source of truth about the current state of the language. - Source: Hacker News / 27 days ago

When writing code in a scripting language, sometimes you need that extra bit of performance (or maybe an async feature from Zig). - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

NodeJS is by no means a slow runtime, it wouldn’t be so popular if it was. But compared to Bun, it’s slow. Bun was built from the ground up with speed in mind, using both JavascriptCore and Zig. The Bun team spent an enormous amount of time and energy trying to make Bun fast, including lots of profiling, benchmarking, and optimizations. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

You may find Zig interesting: https://ziglang.org. The language is not C compatible but the tooling can compile C and C++ without hassle. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Zig describes itself as "... a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal and reusable software.". Sounds very generic, eh? - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

Thankfully, I found Starship, a super fast, super configurable prompt written in Rust. It works with most shells, on most operating systems. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago

Source /usr/share/oh-my-zsh/lib/key-bindings.zsh [1]: https://starship.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

Agreed, I use this in conjunction with Starship [1], both initialized specifically for Fish in the config. I love this shell so much. [1] - https://starship.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

Starship is the new spaceship, yo https://starship.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Recently, I moved off from oh-my-zsh after many users, to vanilla zsh with https://starship.rs, mainly due to the loading speed (used https://github.com/romkatv/zsh-bench to measure the speed). Still wanting to try out fish and hopefully soon! - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
