Summary : A statically typed compiled systems programming language
|
Description :
Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula.
Efficient: * Nim generates native dependency-free executables, not dependent on a virtual machine, which are small and allow easy redistribution. * The Nim compiler and the generated executables support all major platforms like Windows, Linux, BSD and macOS. * Nim\'s memory management is deterministic and customizable with destructors and move semantics, inspired by C++ and Rust. It is well-suited for embedded, hard-realtime systems. * Modern concepts like zero-overhead iterators and compile-time evaluation of user-defined functions, in combination with the preference of value-based datatypes allocated on the stack, lead to extremely performant code. * Support for various backends: it compiles to C, C++ or JavaScript so that Nim can be used for all backend and frontend needs.
Expressive: * Nim is self-contained: the compiler and the standard library are implemented in Nim. * Nim has a powerful macro system which allows direct manipulation of the AST, offering nearly unlimited opportunities.
Elegant: * Macros cannot change Nim\'s syntax because there is no need for it — the syntax is flexible enough. * Modern type system with local type inference, tuples, generics and sum types. * Statements are grouped by indentation but can span multiple lines.
