HAML vs Zsh (Z shell): What are the differences?

What is HAML? HTML Abstraction Markup Language - A Markup Haiku. Haml is a markup language that’s used to cleanly and simply describe the HTML of any web document, without the use of inline code. Haml functions as a replacement for inline page templating systems such as PHP, ERB, and ASP. However, Haml avoids the need for explicitly coding HTML into the template, because it is actually an abstract description of the HTML, with some code to generate dynamic content.

What is Zsh (Z shell)? An extended Bourne shell with a large number of improvements. An interactive login shell, command interpreter and scripting language.

HAML belongs to "Languages" category of the tech stack, while Zsh (Z shell) can be primarily classified under "Shells".

HAML and Zsh (Z shell) are both open source tools. It seems that HAML with 3.44K GitHub stars and 544 forks on GitHub has more adoption than Zsh (Z shell) with 1.47K GitHub stars and 205 GitHub forks.
