Nim is really very nice language to write software in. Ship fast, enjoy the ride, produce very performant software. Unfortunately it still in my experience has some sharp edges: juggling C/C++ compilers and options, very poor error messages, very situational libraries that only work on some settings and systems. Given the small community, tho, I can't really fault them for it. The VS Code integration works very well in my experience, rarely crashing.
