What features would you like to see in Nim or the Nim Ecosystem: - "pure" mode - force usage of scoped variables (unless imported by from... import) and exact case match (like golang does). - lightweight threads with network io multiplexed. - if Nim had something like goroutine (ie multiplexed on networking and use native threads for other syscalls), then it will be ultimate language for server programming. - gem like functionality (gem install sinatra) - [nimble](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble) - A cookbook site similar to Python, where users can share code, mostly snippets. Driven by normal users rather by experts-only. - A wiki functionality for parts of the documentation so that users could update the documentation in a simple way (and Araq could take these suggestions and approve or reject them quickly). - A pastebin for nim on the Nim Homepage or somewhere else. - Allow multiple ranges (eg 1..3,5..8), handle reverse ranges (eg 5..1, 3.. -3) - echo automatically handle simple display of sequences (similar to repr) - vector and matrix maths (or include a port of an existing library) - include a do while loop (or equivalent) - % formating extended to include math precision (like provided by formatFloat, but in a concise % syntax way) - easier sorting, that doesn't need wrestling with types. - a ternary condition - like ?: in C, or iif() - You can do: ``if cond: a else: b``, IIRC the ``?:`` won't make it into Nim. - a simple way of indexing the last element of an array or sequence, to avoid long-hand code like ``arr[arr.len-1]`` - You can do: ``arr[arr.high]`` or ``arr[arr.low]`` for indexing the last and first element or an array or sequence. - If it is ``thisismylongname[thisismylongname.high]`` thats not helpfull. ``thisismylongname[>]`` and ``thisismylongname[<]`` looks nice for that in my eyes. - a shorthand way of discarding the return value of a proc (to improve readability) - a shorthand initialization of arrays or sequences, eg var x: array[0..25, int] = -1 would initialize all elements of x to -1 - array/sequence comprehension - introspection like python's dir() - scoped imports, like D, Ada, and Ocaml - Nim documentation provided as .epub (tutorials + manual)
