godotnim-samples VS gdnim

I don't know if this will help, but here's some GodotNim (3.X) code that might be easier to re-implement(/convert?) and test. 75 LOC, label and button code.

I just want to add, you can also easily call native code from Godot-specific if you can do so in the language. It's Nim-Nim, but here's an example I did (full project here):

I uploaded a decbinhex number converter (using Godot for the GUI) here.

Not too long ago I made my own example for Nim-lang, just a simple decbinhex converter GUI.

For reference I've already made the converter (Currently a pull-request to be added to Zetashift's Godot-Nim examples) and just using strutils is one thing I've done (along with manual conversion).

For something that actually does something, I reccomend the 2 test projects by Zetashift, specifically the dodge-the-creeps demo but note that you have to:

Another option is Nim. Looks and writes like Python but closer to C in performance. It also has static typing so I prefer it for scripting as well.

People have built a few games with the Nim Godot bindings:

There’s also an interesting project to do hot reloading using dlls:

I've been down this road. I forked godot-nim to https://github.com/geekrelief/gdnim and have add several features. I've since moved on to working on https://github.com/geekrelief/tm-nim, a binding for The Machinery.

I maintain a fork of the godot-nim binding https://github.com/geekrelief/gdnim/ All your issues I've dealt with by not relying on the godot editor. Instead I do all the setup with my build script which can generate the gdnlib, gdns, and tscn file for a node with script attached.

This is my first exposure to this and the proposal. I maintain a fork of godot-nim, https://github.com/geekrelief/gdnim. I know someone who was trying to exchange data between gdscript and godot-nim. Nim has a generic vector type: seq[T], and he was trying to expose that to gdscript. I told him to use an Array of Variants instead. Would this PR allow us to expose data structures from gdnative (or whatever) to gdscript?

I can't speak to the issues with setting things up. I never had a problem on Windows. But if you need help create an issue on the godot-nim repo someone might come along and help. I know at least one person that uses/used a mac to get godot-nim running. On my own repo, https://github.com/geekrelief/gdnim I plan to get osx working, but it's not my main dev machine.
