Key differences between Oberon+ and Zig

CharacteristicOberon+Zig
SyntaxMinimalist, Pascal/Modula-2 inspired, simple and concise with a focus on readability.C-like, modern, explicit, and designed for clarity and direct control over low-level details.
ParadigmProcedural with some support for modular and object-oriented programming.Imperative, procedural, and systems programming with strong emphasis on manual control.
TypingStatically typed, strong type system with some type inference.Statically typed, strong and explicit type system with compile-time evaluation.
PerformanceEfficient for its simplicity, but not optimized for modern hardware or high-performance use cases.High performance, competitive with C, designed for systems programming and low-level optimization.
Libraries and frameworksLimited ecosystem, few libraries and frameworks, mostly academic or niche use.Growing ecosystem, still young but has more libraries and interoperability with C libraries.
Community and supportSmall, academic-oriented community, limited active development and support.Active and growing community, good online presence, increasing support and resources.
Learning curveGentle for those familiar with Pascal/Modula-2, simple language core, but less documentation.Moderate, especially for those with C experience; explicitness and manual memory management can be challenging.
