Adjacent comment already has a list of concrete libraries/frameworks for large number of areas, so I just want to mention that nim has a very good metaprogramming capabilities, and if the /language/ itself does not feel up to the task you have a lot more freedom when it comes to implementing things. So it really comes down to the community size and amount of money poured in the development, and not fundamental problems with the language design.

This is mostly an argument about "technically you can write anything with anything", except in nim's case it is also backed by extremely high flexibility.

EDIT: by flexibility I mean

- different backends they covet very huge ecosystems (Js and C, and by extension anything they you can interface with using C (like python))

- already mentioned metaprogramming

- support for low-level convenience features like custom operators

- different memory management options. If you want you can turn off automatic mm completely and write code that deals with pointers and stuff like that directly

- more niche things like support for embedding nim interpreter in your programs https://peterme.net/using-nimscript-as-a-configuration-langu...

Yes, this is something I should have mentioned as well, Nim does a lot of things just right and adds all the right things so it stays out of your way, is not too verbose but still has enough safety guards where you can just do what you want to do.
