The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
Basically the title. Like when roc ported their stdlib to zig from rust, they provided some reasons. I'm just curious why tiger beetle chose zig.
I wouldn't be so sure about that, people often overestimate the need for unsafe. As one counter-example, SurrealDB faces very similar challenges to TigerBeetle, but has almost zero unsafe. And even if you have an unsafe-heavy module, it doesn't negate all Rust benefits.
