Installation

Linux

First, install choosenim. This program allows you to install and upgrade Nim easily.

Under Manjaro: yay -S choosenim

Under Ubuntu: visit https://nim-lang.org/install_unix.html and follow the instructions. You need to execute a script that installs choosenim for you.

Once you have choosenim, here is how to use it:

$ choosenim update self       # updates choosenim
$ choosenim update stable     # installs latest stable Nim
$ choosenim stable            # selects stable version
$ nim -V                      # version info

Windows

Visit https://nim-lang.org/install_windows.html and download Nim in .zip format. I suggest extracting it to the root of the C: drive (example: C:\nim-2.2.8).

Then, add C:\nim-2.2.8\bin to your PATH.
