I gotta say the nim language docs are rather pleasant

Example https://nim-lang.org/docs/tut1.html

But then the whole docs page has multiple interesting things to go through:

A nice experience on the site overall, clear, clean, simple

Gotchas I've seen so far is that nimble.directory page linked in many places just gives a 502. And yesterday I saw the lsp crashing in gram. Also some editors try to use another lsp binary.

My actual ranking for your criteria:

1. #Nim - https://nim-lang.org
2. #Odin - https://odin-lang.org
3. #Gleam - https://gleam.run
4. #Zig - https://ziglang.org
5. #Go - https://go.dev

I just started learning #OdinLang this weekend myself.

Maybe one way to change the rules is to stop writing code that needs big hardware. The old options were C or C++ for speed and efficiency (which are difficult and dangerous) or Python, Ruby, NodeJS, Perl, PHP for quick and easy coding (but which are fat and slow). But we have better options now, better compromises... #RustLang, #NimLang, #GoLang, #CrystalLang ... the legacy languages have become the tools of the oppressor

Circling back to this, do any #nimlang developers have a recommendation for how to pass a pointer of an object to a foreign C function? Or dereference a C pointer?

Basically looking for the equivalent of passing &x and *x (where x is a nim object / struct).

Happy new year everyone! 🎄 I’ve just released MiniECS, a minimalist ECS module for Nim. Enjoy! 🚀

Added a new learning sample to the #kirpi framework today. This shows that small-scale platformers don’t need heavy physics engines — the collision code is just 20 lines. Enjoy. 🍻
