That's an old comment by the way. At that time the newruntime idea was tested (and now replaced by --gc:arc). One needs to be more careful when using others words, especially taken out of context.

stuff like concepts and code reordering are planned to eventually became stable. Nowadays everything is decided in the RFCs repo https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues before a PR hits the main repo.

Short answer yes. See: https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/wiki/Companies-using-Nim People usually announce this stuff in the forum before this page is edited so you might want to search there as well.

I have written a lot of metaprogramming myself, like 5/10 of my repos are macro libraries. And I share your concern. Even the manual advices people to use the least "powerful" tool for the job. These are proc/func<tem

Everything that is new or was causing problems, moved under expiremental https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual_experimental.html These are the features you are describing, the ones needing more refinement.

It was really cool actually, makes use of the nim godot bindings to create a sandbox game with the nim compiler running as a service and run NimScript (a subset of Nim, basically the ffi missing) inside a live 3D environment! Hope to see it

I was thinking the same, that StackOverflow has failed to attract nim users that are able to answer the questions, but afraid to sound too radical didn't express it. Myself included won't login to stackoverflow, since i can't

People use irc #nim (bridged with gitter, discord, matrix) to post simple questions or hangout. For more complex matters forum.nim-lang.org is used. All are pretty active. Github issues included ;) which gives you a good idea of how many pe

I'm pretty sure a year ago there were hundreds of projects using nim in github. Just use a custom query: https://github.com/search?l=Nim&q=nim&type=Repositories

I am hyped about the last talk "Introducing Enu, 3D live-coding in Nim", can't find any information about it online. Seems like a genuine reveal!

Exactly, this is when this problem pops up. Imo the best way to avoid this is to do: ``import sdl2 except Point`` and use the version of the procs that don't use Point, so you pass your own type as: ``render.drawPoints(p.x, p.y)``

I've been programming exclusively in Nim for 4 years, never had a problem with it. In fact it's a lot easier not to think were to get each symbol both in terms of refactoring and mental overhead. Good editor support means, with a

My reasons for using nim: - Syntax is very expressive and not restrictive or bloated (I can write clean code, almost like pseudocode, without boilerplate) - Runs fast and has type checking something that Python lacked (until recently at lea
