Yeah, I have been programming for about a year, and messed around with a few languages (C# and Python mostly), then fell in love with C due to its simplicity. Unfortunately, that simplicity made some things a pain to do (for me at least). I have no idea how to sell Nim to a broader audience, but I love it because it lets me reason about problems as I would in C, but with tonnes of QoL improvements that make things much more approachable to me, as a hobbyist programmer. Pretty much the opposite of Rust, which seems brilliant in many ways, but made me want to cry every time I tried to do anything remotely complicated with it. > What I would like, though, is that "people" would blog about Nim, do videos > about it and perhaps even tutorials - I think that's much, much better than > claiming to be a better other language. It would be nice if there was more material available for learning how to work with Nim. Moreover, I think it is such an ideal first language for people to learn, that it would be fantastic to have resources geared towards teaching programming, using Nim. I would love to be able to contribute something myself, but based on where I am in my own learning, I wouldn't feel confident to do so. Plus I can barely find the time to do the programming I want to do, never mind try to blog about it .
