I was skeptical towards Nim. Then I wrote a small program that uses SDL2, and compared it to the same program written in over 10 other programming languages. Nim has an excellent combination of ease of use and performance.

Can you output WebAssembly/Emscripten project that uses SDL2?

  This seems quite possible from everything I've explored, and also is something I want to try soon. It's also interesting to use Nim through JS for a scripting layer for an application written in Nim; where they both communicate through shared data structures or something. Here's a repo I found: https://github.com/Jipok/Nim-SDL2-and-Emscripten https://github.com/Jipok/Nim-SDL2-and-Emscripten

Nim is my mistress. I work with Elixir and Javascript, but something about Nim is so pure and exact and precise. I love it. I'm hoping someone builds a great web framework with it, and a library like Ecto for better postgresql access. This language great potential to build faster software.
