Commentary/blog post by Andrew Kelley (Zig creator) for perspective!
Very interesting achievement, and of course requires domain knowledge to implement (which you can’t get without experience!)
This should definitely be required follow-up reading, as it puts many of the Bun article's "too good to be true" claims into context.
The fact that the Bun author didn't know that Zig also has LTO really puts the rest of their claims into question.
