I've read Bun is just a wrapper, not actual Zig implementation anyway. Also, making a financial database in beta language that constantly changes and breaks is "really smart".
A wrapper over what?? Bun includes the JavaScriptCore engine for JS evaluation, but it's so much more.
As for financial database concerns, if you're serious about including a project like that in your system, you have thorough correctness and performance testing stages before you commit to it. And once it passes the hurdles, at that point what difference does it make if it's written in a beta language, or a bunch of shell scripts in a trench coat, or whatever.

Another one to the list, however it hardly sounds like a killer application.
It's been my daily driver for close to a year now. It might not be a killer application, but it's certainly enough to prove Zig isn't vapourware.
If that is enough, there are plenty of languages around that fit the bill.

ZML
What is even that? Not bothering to Google for it, which shows how irrelevant it is.
Good call, for bad reasons.

You can actually go and read the source yourself [1]. If Bun is "just a wrapper", then surely Node.js and Deno are too?
