A while ago I wrote an article about a small project that I did in the Zig Programming Language about controlling GPIO on the Raspberry Pi. Zig is a neat language and the whole project ended up being a whole lot of fun. You can read the article here. Although Zig is a very new – and, at the time of writing, immature– language I encourage everyone to take a look, because rather than aiming to replace C++ in all its power and complexity, it aims to replace C which makes it conceptually very different from a language like Rust.
