Nim 2.0.0 RC2

• RFCs

  34 134 4.2

  A repository for your Nim proposals. (by nim-lang)

  

Another situation is when you have to interface with some other language that doesn't have this feature and where nameLikeThis and name_like_this both exist and mean different things. Thus requiring you to work it around with a third naming convention.

Here's one illustration: https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/456#issuecomment-111...

We have partial case-insensitivity in PHP. Can't say I'm very fond of it, but I'm ambivalent as long as it's not abused.

• Nim

  348 16,104 9.9 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).

  

I really wish they would fix the static linking. has needed a hack for three years:

• NimForUE

  15 434 9.2 Nim

  Nim plugin for UE5 with native performance, hot reloading and full interop that sits between C++ and Blueprints. This allows you to do common UE workflows like for example to extend any UE class in Nim and extending it again in Blueprint if you wish so without restarting the editor. The final aim is to be able to do in Nim what you can do in C++

• choosenim

  Tool for easily installing and managing multiple versions of the Nim programming language.

It looks like it was fixed? https://github.com/dom96/choosenim/pull/227

As a reminder, at Nim Conf back in October 2022 Andreas presented Nim 2.0 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDi50K_Id_k&list=PLxLdEZg8DR...

Hearing again I cannot chuckle when Araq says: Nim v1 is good at everything, Nim v2 is supposed to be better at everything.

Back then it was supposed to come out in 2022 and indeed a RC1 came out in Dec. In the blogpost for RC1 you find the desciption of all new features: https://nim-lang.org/blog/2022/12/21/version-20-rc.html

This longer time is because extra care is being taken into having a smooth transitions (for example important libraries have been tested to work on nim v2, e.g. we made sure nimib was working with v2 in early Feb: https://github.com/pietroppeter/nimib/releases/tag/v0.3.6)

I rewrote full (2 years+) project in Nim in 3 weeks. I understand that I knew good architecture for the second implementation, but 3 weeks is good anyway.

Did a lot of pet-projects, I use it for small prod tools or research if it is possible.

For example I wanted to extend atop functionality, and I wrote my own ttop: https://github.com/inv2004/ttop

For new Nim's user I would describe it like python with speed of C-lang. But later you will find that it is not another python, it is its own language with a lot of powerful things like templates, macros, very good interop with C (that is why libraries are not a problem most of the time) and etc.
