This is a huge win for ZSF! I never knew the name Michell Hasimoto before, let alone knew he was a co-founder of HashiCorp. My team at work uses Terraform everyday, so it’s surreal to see it’s creator donating to a community totally disjoint from my work community.

This is huge!

For reference, the ZSF spent $461K total in 2023, according to 2024 Financial Report and Fundraiser ⚡ Zig Programming Language

Wouah that’s brilliant, thanks for Mitchell’s donation, I hope this gets more attention, and inspire maybe other projects to consider using Zig, and maybe make some contribution too.
