This free online converter lets you convert code from C++ to Zig in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
| Characteristic | C++ | Zig |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Complex and feature-rich syntax with legacy constructs and multiple paradigms. | Simple, consistent, and modern syntax designed for clarity and minimalism. |
| Paradigm | Multi-paradigm: procedural, object-oriented, generic, and functional programming. | Primarily procedural with some support for generic programming; no built-in OOP. |
| Typing | Statically typed with strong type checking and support for type inference (since C++11). | Statically typed with explicit types and some type inference; no implicit type conversions. |
| Performance | High performance, close to hardware, mature optimizations, and fine-grained control. | Comparable to C/C++ in performance, with focus on predictability and no hidden control flow. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Extensive standard library and vast ecosystem of third-party libraries and frameworks. | Minimal standard library, smaller ecosystem, but can interoperate with C libraries easily. |
| Community and support | Large, established community with extensive documentation, forums, and industry support. | Growing but smaller community, active development, and limited resources compared to C++. |
| Learning curve | Steep learning curve due to language complexity, legacy features, and advanced concepts. | Gentler learning curve with simpler language design and fewer features to master. |
