I've been using Nim in side projects for the past year or so. I really love the language, to the point where its replaced Python/Node as my language for utilities. Some of the qualities I like: 1) Its really easy to get started with. The default runtime has a GC for memory management, and the typing system is pretty similar to other popular languages. You can pick up the syntax in a day, the basic semantics in a weekend, and the more advanced semantics in a month. 2) Its fast and reliable. If the code compiles, it probably works, and it's probably a tier faster than a scripting language. Maybe not as bulletproof as Rust, but the ease of use is worth it for me. It can even reach C speeds, but that does require some advanced knowledge. Again, the default runtime is probably fast enough. 3) Powerful language features. I know there are a lot of people out there happy using C. I'm glad that works for them, but features like case objects, generics, and closures are part of the abstraction tools that I use to get stuff done. Nim also boosts what might be the best macro system for a static typed language, which is very helpful for framework developers.
