Which do you prefer?
Zig all the way. It's support for lots of architectures out of the box without needing to cross compile is so good for porting your kernel. Allocators and not having to write a whole new std library for your OS is also a major plus. There are lots more ebenfots that would take too long to list here. For an example Zig kernel, check out mine at https://github.com/ZystemOS/pluto (OS name is WIP).

Zig OS Dev Project
It good to see someone else try this out, as it was how I jumped into Zig. osdev with Zig is really nice, especially with how easy it is to write data types to use with hardware interfaces and how much of the standard library being available for freestanding targets.
What are some alternatives?
zigvale-barebones - A brief example of the use of the Zigvale library in a bare-bones kernel.
zig-os - A simple OS written in Zig following Philipp Oppermann's posts "Writing an OS in Rust"
ydin - A very extendable and versatile hybrid kernel.
zig-adaptive-lock - Benchmarking a faster std.Mutex implementation for Zig
reactos - A free Windows-compatible Operating System
toaruos - A completely-from-scratch hobby operating system: bootloader, kernel, drivers, C library, and userspace including a composited graphical UI, dynamic linker, syntax-highlighting text editor, network stack, etc.
build - Armbian Linux build framework generates custom Debian or Ubuntu image for x86, aarch64, riscv64 & armhf
kernel-zig - :floppy_disk: hobby x86 kernel zig
zig - General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.
