Rust was announced in 2010. Rust in 2016 had documentation in better shape than current Zig, and was past 1.0. The difference seems to be that Zig was announced earlier in development. Considering how much I hear about Zig, I expected it to be futher along its development. Maybe not a 1.0, but at least good documentation to get started, to get lots of newcommers and thus lots of feedback. That's not the case, partially because the people behind Zig want to take a different approach, partially because it was announced earlier. This is perfectly fine, it's just surprising and a bit disappointing for people like me that watch Zig from afar. I understand that I'm not the main audience for Zig and have no problem with that.
