WHIP is a high performance web application server based on the excellent httpbeast and routing provided by nest with some additional optimizations.

WHIP is still in development and is not recommended for production use. Much is still missing or untested but for basic API use cases however, the performance numbers look pretty good so far.

Nim is a powerful statically typed language that allows the programmer expressiveness without compromising run-time performance. As a general purpose programming language, it gives the same sort of power and performance as C++, but in a nicer package and with even more powerful tools!

Greetings fellow Nim adventurers! Below you will find 16 handy Nim tips & tricks I came across while developing a medium-sized GUI program this year, Gridmonger (and related libraries). Some of them are about less known or undocumented Nim features or standard library functions, a few are workarounds for some rough edges of the language, and there’s also a handful of useful techniques I read about in forums or have invented on my own.
