But low-level languages also get translated by a parser so I don't see the difference.. Maybe you mean that languages has less abstractions and because of this simplier translations? Think I need to try Zig out to get a grip on it..
I mean that in low-level languages the name of the game is how to work with low-level details, and Zig's design makes it exceptionally pleasant as it uses the same language for those details as it does for the logic. There is no magic here, just very clever and careful design.
