Unusual tones all around in the thread here. My initial observations before reading the comments here:

* "wow, OSS projects are starting to have some pretty wild landing pages, guess it's not just AI logos at the top of the README anymore"

* "wow, all in one commit. was it vibe-one-shotted, curated private work that was squashed, or something in between"

* "wow, Zig is kind easy to read although I really don't want to learn another language in 2026 although I already started learning some to use libghostty"

* "wow, is Zig really this much performant than Golang at the tails"

* "weird it uses Bazel, doesn't Zig have it's own build system like Golang"

* "so who is the author? I see they made an GitHub org for this. Are they going to keep doing stuff after the commit and should I keep this in my messaging queue neurons? Is this some company or person I should follow"

* "the README has a misalignment, do I PR that?"

* "oh cool, it lets you tune memory and the dispatcher"

I never thought of exactly how it manifested, except about the single commit. I have started "vibe coding" much more as the capabilities really improved in the last few months, so that isn't intrinsically a trash approach.

But the "who" and the "how" and the "why" do matter, in terms of whether one should look at it for education or infotainment or as a potential tool.

Disclosure of the intention and method would be courteous to the community when we create and share these things. Otherwise we'll all have high cognitive burden with the amount of projects we'll be seeing in 2026!

I am assuming the message durability guarantees lean towards YOLO rather than ACID? See also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46196105

Why use Basel instead of Zig build tools, as it’s all written in Zig anyway?

I did a similar thing few days back just not with NATS protocol (Made it pure websocket based), and with rust. Couple of questions:

- Where did you get the machine to test your server on?

- Why did you end up going with zig?

You should at least try and align the ascii flowchart in the readme on the repo.

One day Claude will do it correctly but today is not that day.

Upvote for Bazel. I think these days I place a lot more value on how well an ecosystem slots into Bazel/friends because monorepos are increasingly more useful and relevant.

So nice to see there are good rules for Zig and that folks are using them.

Also ironically I think starting with Bazel/Buck/whatever your poison of choice is almost always a good move even if people tell you it's overkill. The easiest time to do it as at the beginning, all times after that is too hard and the marginal cost of building with it from the start is minimal.

Comparison/benchmark to other alternatives?

Wow! This entire project seem to be a big ball of AI slop.

Does it have a similar system to Jetstream? If yes, does it address the reliability issues Jetstream has been criticized about lately?
