This free online converter lets you convert code from Zig to Rust in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Zig | Rust |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Simple, C-like syntax with minimal keywords and explicit control over memory and flow. | Modern, expressive syntax with pattern matching, macros, and more abstraction than C-like languages. |
Paradigm | Imperative, procedural, with some support for generic programming. | Multi-paradigm: supports imperative, functional, and concurrent programming. |
Typing | Statically typed, no nulls, no hidden control flow, and no exceptions. | Statically typed, strong type inference, ownership and borrowing system for memory safety. |
Performance | Very high, close to C/C++, minimal runtime, manual memory management. | Very high, close to C/C++, zero-cost abstractions, memory safety without garbage collection. |
Libraries and frameworks | Fewer libraries and frameworks, but can interoperate with C easily. | Rich and growing ecosystem (crates), many libraries and frameworks for various domains. |
Community and support | Smaller, but active and growing community; less corporate backing. | Large, vibrant community with strong support from Mozilla and other organizations. |
Learning curve | Gentle for those familiar with C; straightforward concepts but less abstraction. | Steep, especially due to ownership and borrowing concepts, but excellent documentation. |
