Some high-level noob questions
Familiar with C#? My friend, may I point you towards a rendering library called SadConsole and a framework specifically for creating RogueLikes called GoRogue. They are lacking in tutorials (SadConsole recently had a major version change, and GoRogue is soon to follow suit), but they've got a discord community where people are really helpful.

A short introduction to Entity-Component-System in C++ with EnTT
What exactly is unpleasant about Entt? I had previously read someone (prime31) in the Zig community speak very highly of it on Discord.

What engine do you folks code in?
I've started working on a project in Zig, using zig-ecs. I don't really have a frontend yet, I just print to the terminal for debugging, and eventually I'll probably use SDL.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing GoRogue and zig-ecs you can also consider the following projects:
SadConsole - A .NET ascii/ansi console engine written in C# for MonoGame and XNA. Create your own text roguelike (or other) games!
love - LÖVE is an awesome 2D game framework for Lua.
RLLib - A Traditional Roguelike library for creating roguelikes in C#
zls - A Zig language server supporting Zig developers with features like autocomplete and goto definition
VkInfo - Vulkan support library in C# using Silk.NET
river - [mirror] A dynamic tiling Wayland compositor
zig - General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.
