The stdlib not working without GC, making not truly optional, is one of the main reasons I stopped using nim - though I haven't checked if this is better in some time.



What were you planning to develop? This should help me figure out whether the stdlib still has an issue for that use case without a GC.


Embedded code, modules for use in higher level languages - and this is the killer, memory management in "mixed" contexts


Well it works without GC, but memory is never freed :)


Right, I'm sorry, I suffer a narrower definition of "works" :)
