HAML vs Nim: What are the differences?
Developers describe HAML as "HTML Abstraction Markup Language - A Markup Haiku". Haml is a markup language that’s used to cleanly and simply describe the HTML of any web document, without the use of inline code. Haml functions as a replacement for inline page templating systems such as PHP, ERB, and ASP. However, Haml avoids the need for explicitly coding HTML into the template, because it is actually an abstract description of the HTML, with some code to generate dynamic content. On the other hand, Nim is detailed as "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.
HAML and Nim belong to "Languages" category of the tech stack.
HAML is an open source tool with 3.44K GitHub stars and 544 GitHub forks. Here's a link to HAML's open source repository on GitHub.
