Nim seems to be picking up a lot lately.
I should give a talk. About what however? I’ve been happy with my progress on FigDraw (1), a 2D UI scene renderer using SDFs. Even made my own neovim ui shell with it!

Such a pity that this is an online-only conference.

Does anyone know of an IRL conference or meetup on Nim, preferably in EU?

For everyone wondering who may have been unaware. It is 100% remote, so you can just show up. :)

> NimConf 2026 is an online conference and it will take place on June 20th. It will be streamed for free and it doesn’t require any traveling - you will be able to participate from your home, without any travel and accommodation expenses.

I plan to give a couple of talks this year.

Can't wait for NimConf, it is way overdue.

I like the nim language, but the lack of interfaces has been a bit of a turn-off for me.

Do nim programmers not see the need for abstracting out behavior in a manner that different implementations can be switched somewhere else, or is there different idiomatic way to handle this?
