@ekaitz_zarraga @annika yeah you can jump through hoops to get there (you can with Nim too), but Nim is already good enough out of the box for 90% of cases that you don't have to do that. It also makes source distribution easier as people can compile using default-ish settings on their system and not get massively bloated binaries.

nim c -d:release --opt:size --passL:static makes for a size optimized statically linked release build. Not hard to remember.
