      Oh yeah. I would love to replace Python with Nim. The fact that you can generate self contained executables without effort is a huge selling point for me. And dependency management with Python is just awful.

      I really like some things about Nim, but I think it’s held back by its BDFL, its documentation, and the complexity of using some of its advanced features. I wonder if the Nimskull project will eventually become a more popular choice.
