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).
There are languages that work as source-to-source compilers like Haxe, Zig, Nim, but no emphasis on IR which you can compose with your own transformations.

It would be awesome to develop something abstract and useful for usage as common PL (besides just solving specific problem), but it's really hard to develop a general purpose language (with memory management, mutations, etc.). For example, at my work I built reactive library mostly similar to Rx.js or Bacon.js, but with additional ability to compose different reactive systems on top of each other, so that streams declaration order won't matter and might be deployed separately while being glued at run-time (as long as stream names match). It's all cool, but system would only allow reactive functions (without imperativity and mutable objects), then the whole code would look really ugly and I definitely wouldn't be able to promote it among my colleges ^^, especially regarding how hard people migrate to new paradigms - sorry for complaining 😊.
