Monitoring systems behaviors is mandatory in today's world. Telemetry data is really good to have and provide system processes, event logs and performance counters activities.

I love to learn zig and also I feel this feature must be in the language.

u might be interested in instrumentation with https://github.com/nektro/zig-tracer

#

the default backend is none so it can be transparently added to libraries without polluting downstream projects

#

if there's a tracing backend you're interested in that's not there, feel free to open an issue :)

is there something from that page specifically you're interested in? much of it is already supported and/or possible

#

.net runs in vm so it requires dedicated tooling, whereas zig is a bare-metal compiled language and is compatible with many existing tools, among other things
