I’ve been using new shiny languages for a while now. #Rust, #Zig and #Swift in particular.
I love Rust’s tooling, Swift’s syntax, and Zig’s philosophy, but I feel like good old #Cpp is still the goat.
Yeah, the syntax can get out of hand really quickly.
Yeah, the STL is bloated.
Yeah, the tooling ecosystem is a mess.
But at the end of the day, with a good style guide and some discipline, it can check most of my boxes.
But learning new languages is always fun so I’m still doing it 😬
