I’ve been building Ziex (https://ziex.dev), a framework that brings the "Next.js experience" to Zig.
I wanted to build web UIs using Zig, but I couldn't find many options that offered a declarative UI like JSX. Ziex is my attempt to bridge that gap, combining systems-level performance with great DX.
Features:
JSX-like syntax: Write UI naturally inside Zig.
Server-side rendering: Fast by default, with no garbage collector.
File-system routing: Just like modern JS frameworks.
Asset pipeline: Automated WebP/AVIF image optimization built-in.
Client-side rendering: For client side interactivity Ziex compile client component to wasm.
To see it in action, I built a Hacker News clone with it that is deployed to cloudflare worker:

It’s currently approaching its Alpha release. I’d love to hear feedback and ideas!
