# Projects
|
|
|
|
## Compiler
|
|
- **Add support for coroutines**
|
|
- **Fix bugs with iterators/generics**
|
|
- **Fix/Expand Compiler as a Service features**
|
|
|
|
## Standard Library
|
|
- **Integrate and expand new async io module**
|
|
|
|
- **Enhance the filesystem monitoring module "fsmonitor.nim"**
|
|
* Allow the fsmonitor module to work on Windows by using native api's to gather information about changes in monitored files and directories.
|
|
* Revise the fsmonitor module api to decouple unix/linux file handle paradigms (such as using sockets.poll) from the api, allowing easier implementations of native backends.
|
|
* Integrate the fsmonitor module's polling mechanism into the new asynchronous io modules.
|
|
|
|
- **Add a cross-platform stat()-like procedure to the operating system module "os.nim"**
|
|
* Implement a procedure which uses native stat-like calls on Linux, Mac, Windows, and other operating systems to gather detailed information about specific file system objects. Allow the bypassing of symlinks and hardlinks, where possible.
|
|
|
|
- **Enhance and expand standard library documentation**
|
|
* Ensure that documentation exists for all public methods and modules
|
|
* Create and design new CSS and HTML layouts for the documentation, to better fit with the main website
|
|
* Add search capabilities to the documentation
|
|
|
|
## Tools & Infrastructure
|
|
- **Update and refactor nimrod builder**
|
|
* Reduce the number of assumptions the nimrod builder makes about its host system, in order to reduce configuration restrictions. Assumptions include location and usage of external tools, such as git. |
