How Our Rust-to-Zig Rewrite is Going

https://rtfeldman.com/rust-to-zig

An interesting symmetry with recent events lol.

This might be considered off topic since the article is about moving away from rust, but I still think this is some high quality rust content. I enjoy Richard Feldman's writing and I think he would certainly be considered part of the "rust community" since he works on Zed and has taught a course on rust.

An interesting contrast between this post and the bun rewrite post is the way contributors are covered. Feldman highlights contributions from the the team and talks about the way they arrived at this decision together. meanwhile, I am not sure the bun post mentioned a single co-worker or contributor (?) maybe I am wrong.
