With this release we end a successful year 2021 and we're taking some well deserved holidays.
If you want to use your holidays for Nim related work, here is the plan once again: https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/437
Work on version 2.0 can start in the Nim devel branch, json and os modules are looking for your refactorings!
Merry Christmas!
Thanks for your hard work !
I have been using Nim again after a year or so for the advent of code and it's a pleasure to use :)
oh cool. So breaking changes are now allowed in devel? Big if true :)
Guess this is a good opportunity to optimise json?
This is big year of Nim, Huge progress , Much Stable ! Lets Rule all languages at 2022!
I think 2021 is the year that started the boom of nim , right? How many users compare to previous years ?
oh cool. So breaking changes are now allowed in devel? Big if true :)
Yes, they are, to the extend that we think they are unavoidable. But we'll be careful.
