D vs Nim: What are the differences?
D: Modern convenience. Modeling power. Native efficiency. D is a language with C-like syntax and static typing. It pragmatically combines efficiency, control, and modeling power, with safety and programmer productivity; Nim: A statically typed compiled systems programming language. It is an efficient, expressive and elegant language which compiles to C/C++/JS and more. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula.
D and Nim can be primarily classified as "Languages" tools.
