What if I switch from Rust to Zig because of long build times in development?

I just opened https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/1voapjq/rust_backend_slow_dev_compile_times_im_exhausted/. I'm wondering if i can swith to Zig easily.

  • Is the dependency/library ecosystem ready? For example is there something like rust-embed?
  • What might be the challenges?

I'm not a comfortable, lazy, or quitter. I enjoy challenges, but I'm really exhausted by Rust's build times during development.
