You can install Nim packages easily with nimble.

Not a fan of Go and actually like nim but https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go

Also for people actually targeting production there is hufe dif. between say DB driver that is used in literally millions of projects and has a large number of active maintainers and DB driver written by 1 dude that has not commited any fixes in 12 month

Looks impressive. However, since Nim has such an easy C/C++ FFI you have to consider also all C and C++ APIs. That looks superior even to Go, unless Go's C FFI is as easy as Nim's.

That is true but up to a point say I want production ready async PG driver FFI does not help me much
