Bus factor of ziglang/zig
What is Bus factor?
It is basically a number of most active contributors responsible for 80% of contributions.
Bus factor tries to assess "What happens if a key member of the team is hit by a bus?". The more there are key members, the lower the risk.
The ziglang/zig repository has a bus factor of 23.
Low risk, knowledge is well distributed among the team members

Repository summary
The ziglang/zig GitHub repository is the main repository for the Zig programming language. Zig is a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software. Its main focus is on optimizing for debugging ability and robustness rather than progressive features, and on providing clear, simple, and direct functionality, with a heavy focus on compile-time computation.
The Zig project was initiated by Andrew Kelley, aiming to make programmers' work easier, more effective, and enjoyable. The readme file in the repository provides an in-depth analysis of what Zig is, its features, how it is different, supported platforms, license information, and how to contribute to the project.
Some key points about the Zig programming language:
- Compiles directly to C: Zig can compile directly to C, making it potentially usable in any context that C could be.
- Powerful compile-time code generation and reflection: Zig has a powerful set of tools for generating code at compile time, and for reflecting on types and values.
- Designed for robustness and optimal performance: Zig is designed to produce robust software that performs as optimally as possible.
- Vibrant Community: Zig has an active and responsive community of developers. The contribution guide is welcoming and detailed, making it easy for beginners and advanced developers alike to contribute to the project.
