Nim
Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).
Nim is cool. Python-like syntax, pascal-like types and compiles to C so it's super fast. Check it out: https://nim-lang.org/ and a good tutorial is https://nim-by-example.github.io/

Scout APM
Scout APM: A developer's best friend. Try free for 14-days. Scout APM uses tracing logic that ties bottlenecks to source code so you know the exact line of code causing performance issues and can get back to building a great product faster.

Project mention: What are some anti features in a language? | reddit.com/r/ProgrammingLanguages | 2021-06-08
So you wouldn't have a problem with a package manager where the configuration is in the same language, such as Nimble?

Arraymancer
A fast, ergonomic and portable tensor library in Nim with a deep learning focus for CPU, GPU and embedded devices via OpenMP, Cuda and OpenCL backends

Well no language is perfect, but Nim can be used in almost every domain because of it's compilation targets(C, C++, JS) and it's fast compile times(who needs interpretation when compile times are that fast!):
* Shell scripting, I still assume most people will just use Bash tho: https://github.com/Vindaar/shell
* Frontend: https://github.com/karaxnim/karax or you could bind to an existing JS library.
* Backend: For something Flask-like: https://github.com/dom96/jester or something with more defaults https://github.com/planety/prologue
* Scientific computing: the wonderful SciNim https://github.com/SciNim
* Blockchain: Status has some of the biggest Nim codebases currently in production https://github.com/status-im?q=&type=&language=nim&sort=
* Gamedev: Also used in production: https://github.com/pragmagic/godot-nim and due to easy C and C++ interop, you get access to a lot of gamedev libraries!
* Embedded: this is a domain I know very little about but for example https://github.com/elcritch/nesper or https://github.com/PMunch/badger for fun Nim+embedded stuff!
Most of the disadvantages come from tooling and lack of $$$ support.

Project mention: Use forums rather than Slack/Discord to support developer community | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-11-08
If you like Discourse but want something a bit lighter, check out: https://github.com/nim-lang/nimforum

There is also the Nim base nigui. It atleast sets out to give a cross platform GUI toolkit for all OS using "native"(Mac/Linux use gtk presently) drawing.

choosenim
Tool for easily installing and managing multiple versions of the Nim programming language.
Try it out for yourself! I reccomend installing nim on your machine with this easy installer: https://github.com/dom96/choosenim

Project mention: FYI, you can use Rust as a native scripting language | reddit.com/r/godot | 2021-11-26
Ant then install the bindings. And thats where I'm a bit lost even after reading Godot docs. Not sure if I'm right, but seems to be necessary to compile Godot?

There is a some effort in Nim, called moe[1]. Nim has a lot of features similar to a Lisp, and is both compiled and scriptable. Of course, it requires contributions to make it usable as a daily driver, but I guess that is somewhat the point. The vision is sound imo.

Do you have any specific libraries that you are missing? The packages list [1] has almost 1600 packages.

In the ORM field, Norm[1] is an actively maintained package that supports SQLite and Postgres. It's framework agnostic, I've used it with Jester and Prologue (it had nothing to do with Prolog btw).
Among frameworks, Prologue is the most actively developed and feature rich.

...except that macros don't change the syntax of the language! They just offer convenience on top of it, most common example is the `=>` lambda operator from the `sugar` module. I do agree, that the pattern matching macro presented in the article is a bit hard to get used to, but you don't have to, if you don't like pattern matching. And of course there are plenty of alternatives available as well, the simplest one imo is https://github.com/andreaferretti/patty
