Thank you!
I'm the maintainer of the awesome-nim and I'm so tired to maintain this repo.
Awesome-nim is now deprecated in favor of Curated Packages.

I didn't follow any order, mostly adding a new link under a category when
discovering a new package. When there were too many packages, I
Thats works!
I have moved RTree from Graphics algorithms to Data structures .

You wrote about prefering pure packages. Note that wNim and gintro
Instead of depending on external Github repository, I've moved my curated
packages list to Nim's wiki:

Now everybody can contribute. No need to wait for PR being merged: you just

I just opened an issue on the awesome-nim repo about adding a few more
collaborators, so that PRs can be merged more quickly.

Well, there is a two-month-old PR waiting to merged. I think awesome-nim is a
very important resource for newcomers. Personally, it was one of the first
repos I checked when I found nim. Also, I agree with @kidandcat
Is it? if you open a PR, it's quickly merged last time I tried.
Like I always say, the awesome-nim repo should be under the nim org, then if
all core maintainers are busy even for accepting PRs, add external
collaborators, but keep the repo under your control if that person disappear.
Well, I think awesome-nim is abandoned. If anyone knows the creator it would be
nice if he wants to pass the repo to the official nim organization or to
someone active in the community.

Please give me a better class name for them. Is "Blockchain" a good one?
When you decide to take vacations and visit a new country, I hope you take a
tourist guide or a map of that new location and don't go at random with only a
GPS. A map is not complete but indicates interesting places. Depending on your
interest in history or gastronomy, you'll take different

IMO, If nimble.directory was showing/grouping projects by using tags in
packages.json, curated list would be much less needed.
It's a wiki, we can edit it.
And it's better if people from the domain actually add the packages they find
useful like:
* data science / statistics: missing ggplotnim and nim-plotly
* bio: missing nim-hts
Though I strongly disagree with putting nimbus and blockchain in Finance.
Anyway,
If something does not compile, make a Bug on that project. IMHO.
> i dont get the point of these categorized lists.
I think such a list is not that bad for newcomers to get an overview what is
available.
But no nimble packages should be left out -- if you do not like gtk you can not
simple ignore all gtk related GUIs, and if you hate RTrees, or do not know
i dont get the point of these categorized lists. if i need something, i search
for it using existing search tools, not wander around some _curated_ list.
Wow, how could you include some useless packages and not Karax??
There was another similar attempt recently, see
[https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/5190#32541](https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/5190#32541)
Thank you for your effort, but I can not imagine that such an incomplete list
can be very helpful.
For example Araq listed the GUI packages recently, I think that
When you are searching for packages for your projects, this [categorized
list](https://github.com/pmetras/packages/wiki) can help you to start.
They could be added to [Awesome Nim](https://github.com/VPashkov/awesome-nim)
too.
