Basically, instead of sending out my Nim (and force everyone to install the compiler), I was thinking of just sending out the C code.

How to obtain a fully compilable (with everything included) C-version of my project?

You can do that via niminst, see https://nim-lang.org/docs/niminst.html for more information. However, you can also simply ship binary files on macOS X.

Thanks for the suggestion>

Regarding shipping binaries, that's exactly what I thought. But look at this one:

Try --genScript:on on the compiler and copy all the .c and nimbase.h and the .sh script to compile.
