> Given that, we have not yet introduced any production applications written in Zig into our codebase (where the toolchain is fully set up), because only a few people in the company know the language at the moment.

Do you have any plans where you can use zig in production applications? Thanks!



Hi!

No plans yet. In my opinion, it needs a good reason to be picked instead of C (which we have sizable) to overcome the "number of developers" argument.

Introducing a new general purpose language into a large company carries a significant cost, especially into the future. The company is rightly cautious.
