Characteristic | Carbon | Zig |
---|---|---|
Syntax | C++-like, designed to be familiar to C++ developers with modern improvements. | C-like, minimalistic and explicit, with a focus on simplicity and readability. |
Paradigm | Primarily imperative and object-oriented, with support for generic programming. | Imperative and procedural, with strong emphasis on manual control and no built-in OOP. |
Typing | Statically typed with type inference and generics. | Statically typed, no type inference for variables, but supports generics via comptime. |
Performance | Aims for performance comparable to C++, targeting systems programming. | High performance, often matching or exceeding C, with predictable and explicit control. |
Libraries and frameworks | Limited, as the language is experimental and early-stage; relies on interoperability with C++. | Growing standard library, can use C libraries directly, but lacks extensive third-party frameworks. |
Community and support | Small, early-stage community, mostly researchers and early adopters. | Active and growing community, with increasing adoption and open-source contributions. |
Learning curve | Easier for C++ developers, but still evolving and lacks mature resources. | Moderate; simple syntax but requires understanding of low-level concepts and manual memory management. |
