Don't mistake Nim for Haxe : P
Our caveman ancestors had this silly belief that a tool should "do one thing
and do it well"...
But then came Nim!
_Nim does everything!_
It slices, it dices, it generates code that generates code that generates
code...
Write a kernel in Nim. Write your Web client-side in Nim. Earlier today
Well bugs are bugs and only critical bugs are scheduled to be fixed before v1.
The JS backend is not special in this regard, it's widely used and quite stable
too.
[https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/4470](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/4470)
seems to be the worst offender here.
Questions up front:
For the Nim roadmap, how much attention is going to be spent improving the
backends besides C? Will the js backend be considered a part of the official
1.0 release?
Are there plans for other official backends in the future?
