I work mainly with JS and Go, and I can tell you I love Nim because I can copy
the same program from Go to Nim and it will have like 10 times less code
I find that it is more readable when you declare what data type it is. You
don't have to comment as much, so it is more orderly IMHO. I think Python have
the extreme edge on most language with all these libraries. It seem neural
networks and AI in general is leaning towards python, and AI is the
This makes perfect sense, now I have more arguments when recommending Nim to
advanced programmers. Thank you for your answers. I am planning to make a tiny
toy language(I have a lot of reading and practise to do). Is nimly the way to
go? Are there any manuals available? Thank you for all answers
A lot of people find Nim's expressiveness comparable to Python. I find static
types in Nim increase productivity even over Python although the ecosystem and
tooling are not that rich.
IME Nim code is almost always shorter and it's easy to see why: It doesn't have
lines full of `} } }`. ;-) That's hardly an objective bonus to "productivity"
because syntax is simply not that important.

It depends on the coding style.

I have a question that I have been thinking about since I discovered Nim. How
does Nim compare to other languages like C/C++, python,Java as far as
productivity and terseness? How compact are Nim applications? Can one write a
Nim equivalent to a C++ program in dramatically fewer lines of code? A
