Key differences between Zig and Racket

CharacteristicZigRacket
SyntaxC-like, imperative, minimalistic, and explicit syntax.Lisp-like, uses lots of parentheses, prefix notation, highly flexible.
ParadigmProcedural, systems programming, some support for generic and metaprogramming.Multi-paradigm, primarily functional and procedural, supports object-oriented and logic programming.
TypingStatically typed, no runtime overhead, strong type safety.Dynamically typed by default, optional static typing via Typed Racket.
PerformanceHigh performance, close to C/C++, suitable for low-level and systems programming.Moderate performance, optimized for flexibility and expressiveness rather than raw speed.
Libraries and frameworksSmaller ecosystem, growing standard library, limited third-party libraries.Rich ecosystem for language design, education, scripting, and web development; extensive package manager.
Community and supportSmaller, rapidly growing community, active core development, good documentation.Established academic and educational community, strong support, extensive documentation.
Learning curveModerate, easier for those familiar with C-like languages, explicit and low-level concepts.Steep for those new to Lisp syntax, but beginner-friendly resources and educational focus.
