Doesn't depend much on the standard library -- almost not at all, and usually behind flag (e.g., if you don't -d:useMalloc , nim will not us malloc). I think it's no longer maintained, but there's a kernel that boots on metal written in Nim. Furthermore, people are running Nim on ESP32, Nintendo Switch, JS (Browser, Node), iOS, Android and more; From that alone its clear that the C library can't be a significant dependency. (And ... just about any C compiler around, including GCC, LLVM, TCC, MS C, Intel C, Zig C are supported when using C as a backend).
