Hi,

Since i found it here on HN, it has been my goto language for all serious projects. Only respect and praise for Nim community ,I started by asking dumb questions on Nim channel, but someone was always there to help. Later I started using Nim for wrapping existing C libraries which allowed me to read codebases, i otherwise would not have read. Being able to write high level code and access memory directly where-ever necessary, hit a sweet spot for me. I recently started porting Code to use ARC, which has been really cool to play with and also provides out of the box automatic memory management for existing C code. Having a single codebase for cross-platform development has been a great help. Personally would like to use Metaprogramming, macros features for some complex cases , still learning about them.

I think i know you from Nim discord channel, I mainly spent time in Science channel. Thanks for your contributions and checking out the website!
