I just wanted to say thank you. This learning material is great! I'm an old-time C-programmer and after a couple of hours with your material I'm having a great time in Zig!

Thanks for all the hard work coming up with thorough excercises!

I have never giggled so much while learning a programming language, the passion is infectious! Ziglings and Rustlings like tutorials are the future, literally the best way for a programmer to learn a new language.

Thank you so much for making it!

I would also like to thank you very much for your efforts! I have been a programmer for many years, but have never had so much fun learning a new language. :smiley:

As an old programmer eager to get into some of the new languages after twenty years of falling behind I find Rustlings and Ziglings so great that I'm disappointed at finding no equivalent for other languages I'm dabbling in. I Can't find one for Swift but I just found one for TypeScript: typescriptlings. I can only hope that it's as good as this one. (Sadly it turns out to be barely a skeleton.)

Thank you for this resource. I feel like back in school when I was eager to learn everything. As a professional developer (10 years of experience) who has focused on Front End development for the last 6 years and using Typescript daily for the last 3 years, I have forgotten how to care about the lower-level concepts that higher-level languages handle themselves. Your material is perfect for me because it covers only the language basics (without much of the Standard Library) and reminds me how programs actually work.

@sethlivingston Gosh, thanks! :heart: I'd have to figure out what to do with donations, though, since a lot of the hard work is now being done by other people! I'm just doing the fun part now. :laughing:

@sethlivingston Thank you very much! I sponsor some projects myself, but honestly haven't thought about setting that up myself. But thanks for the hint!
