    I want to love Nim but during my trial run with it. It was a pain in the ass to get set up on my Mac in a way that I could use it easily ie as a repl for quick and dirty prototyping and learning

        No issue setting up Nim itself (and I realize my complaint is not fault to Nim itself) but it would be great if this complimentary jupyter kernel for Nim would work on MacOS… Hasn’t been maintained in a while: https://github.com/stisa/jupyternim/issues/38

        Would be very useful for my workflow as someone who wants to explore Nim for data science-y type tasks.

        Anyone know of an alternative Nim jupyter kernel?

          Try inim.

          It’s not perfect, but closest thing to repl.
          I use it all the time for very small experiments.
          Installation should be as easy as:

          nimble install inim
