Nim 1.0 language released

Nim is a statically typed language that focuses on efficiency, readability, and flexibility.

Version 1.0 has a stable base that can be used with confidence in the coming years. Starting with the current release, any code written in Nim will not be broken.

This release includes many changes, including bug fixes and some language additions. The package also comes with an updated Nimble package manager.

Version 1.0 is now LTS. Support and bug fixes will continue as long as they are needed. New features that will not break backward compatibility will be developed in the 1.x branch.

The current goal is that any code that compiles with this release will continue to compile with any stable version of 1.x going forward.

The compiler still implements the functions that are described in the "experimental manual". These features may still be subject to backward incompatible changes. There are also modules in the standard library that are still considered unstable, and they are marked as unstable API.

You can update now:
