  1. tigerbeetle

    The financial transactions database designed for mission critical safety and performance.

    About three years ago, we had a thread called "Significant examples of Zig software?". Some time has passed, and there have been fairly large Zig code bases that have surfaced since, such as TigerBeetle (cc /u/eatonphil), or adoption at places like Uber.

  3. bun

    Incredibly fast JavaScript runtime, bundler, test runner, and package manager – all in one

    I think one of the bigger (if not the biggest) projects using zig at this time is bun. For those living under a rock, bun is a JS runtime and replacement for Node.js and Deno.

  4. zig

    General-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

    Here’s a list on zig’s github

  5. tides-of-revival

  6. mach

    zig game engine & graphics toolkit
