Nim is great, and this article is great, except until now no article about nim managed to sell it to me like a simple Golang example including channel and go routine.
Could any Nim advocate demonstrate a simple program that:
less than 50 loc
shows the greatest strength (1 killing selling point is enough)
- klibertp 12y agoThere's no such thing as a single "selling point" for Nim. Or rather there are many such points: depending on what programming you do you'll appreciate different language features. Making a list of many (not all of course) powerful language features is - I think - the right approach to the problem here. It would probably be better if you explained what kind of problems you're dealing with in your work: we could then look at Nim features and tell you if there's something that would make your life easier and your work more enjoyable.
- crazychrome 12y agoI understand you (maybe including other Nim guys) feels undervalued/offended when I asked for a sales pitch. Nim is an opensource project and probably nobody makes a cent out of it, yet some arrogant guy like me treat the priceless work like something off shelf in the supermarket. sadly the reality is not everybody has the time to appreciate the beauty of Nim unless he/she is convinced Nim identifies a problem largely ignored by others and solves it beautifully. my point is, could you convince me?
