NIM has drawn attention and gained followers in an increasing and extremely active community to be:

  • Efficient

NIM generates natives without dependence, not dependent on a virtual machine, which is small and allows easy redistribution.

The NIM compiler and the executables generated support all major platforms, such as Windows, Linux, BSD, and MacOS.

NIM memory management is deterministic and customizable with destructors and semantic movement, inspired by C ++ and Rust. It is suitable for embedded or real-time systems.
