I think it'll be the long slow path for Nim, unless it gets a "killer app" like Ruby on Rails. Python took many years to peculate before the data science stuff really kicked it off. > Rust crates have 95000+ packages and Nimble 2000+, I hope someday the Nim > count grows very much. I had to learn Rust for a work project recently and while there are 90,000+ crates out there so many of them were just to work around limitations in Rust itself or it's really limited stdlib. It was frustrating spending hours evaluating crates, many with almost no documentation, to try and solve some simple task. :/ Doing pretty much anything in Rust requires adding a crate or two. I'm not really exaggerating either -- there are probably half a dozen or more [crates for initializing arrays](https://www.joshmcguigan.com/blog/array-initialization-rust/). The traits system also encourages lots of crates just to provide the trait scaffolding. Rust definitely still has the advantage in ecosystem, but I don't think it's nearly as large as the 2k vs 95k makes it seem.
