Nim's not perfect. Come on, ask me to explain the differences between the not one, not two, not three, not four, NOT FIVE, but seven (at time of writing) garbage collectors you can specify at compile time. Or how to cross-compile a static program using regexes; something I can do without thinking in Go and Rust, but here I have to think about "impureness". Or why you need a third party package for functional programming because the built-in one is inefficient. Spoiler: I can't.

compiler support for object construction shorthand

Well, maybe not writing. Occasionally low-level C libraries - especially those that deal with keyboard input - decide to provide identifiers differing only in case... There's a WIP RFC for providing a way to deal with identifiers that need to be verbatium by surrounding them with backticks, though.

Following The Roadmap 2023 for community building , you could join us in the matrix space where we discuss how to build a community. We appreciate doable suggestions and helps, such as improving the workflow, implementing the roadmap, suggesting doable tasks, reviewing code from contributors. United we stand. We shall work together to make the community thrive.

First of all, the Nim development follows The Roadmap 2023, which specifies what features might be implemented or removed in 2023. As we can see, completing incremental compilation and recursive module dependencies might be the most important tasks to be done in 2023. You might subscribe to the roadmap and write down your expectations of Nim in 2023 there.
