zig-0.11.0-dev.3786+8dcb4a3dc (for linux_x86_64 in my case) is working. I couldn't find a different 0.11 version for direct download.
Build instructions can be found here https://ziglang.org/learn/getting-started/#direct-download, and it is a little awkward to find them, to be honest. On the other hand, one only needs to extract it with xz --decompress and add the extracted directory to your path. I suggest to mention this.
Users of poop that aren't zig devs, likely do not want to set up a nighty build / nighlty download of a prebuild binary, and the version for download likely keeps changing. That is a tough situation, and should be at least mentioned.
I did not check whether some zig-0.10 is working, but using a more stable version might be more convenient for users of poop that aren't zig-devs.
