  It would probably be a good start to help with fixing bugs in the compiler or helping to implement new functions in it. There is always more work to do with it than there are willing to do it. :)

  You can make Nim ecosystem Better if You are interested,

  You can start by Porting useful libs and other important things missing in the Ecosystem

  If U have compiler and Programming language design knowledge You can help Araq and other with that but no one knows Nim more than its designer so it can be hard to contribute except if You really have a lot of experience.

  I think You can start by making a complete Game framework for Nim if You are experienced in it (Game dev) ?

  Or else You can make general purpose libs that are not available. Well there is a lot of scope but it depends on what You know and in which You are interested.

  Maybe see what other languages has ( ex: maybe a massive easy to use web framework or some tool ) , the ideal goal would be to make " a better version of it , that is not only ease to use but also faster".

  You know, actually I think the best you could do at this point is hook up the open issues to a language model for tagging, standardized summary, suggested urgency, difficulty, and required codebase knowledge (lexer, ast, tooling, GC, stdlib, etc)
