I&amp;#x27;ve had terrible experiences with lockfiles in JS land, but they &lt;i&gt;are&lt;/i&gt; sorely needed for Nim projects as (fingers crossed) they&amp;#x27;ll allow for reproducible builds without having to resort to the nimbus-build-system[2]. The latter isn&amp;#x27;t completely horrible — a lot of much appreciated hard work has gone into it, and it&amp;#x27;s been a real workhorse — but some days it feels like a big ball and chain.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;ll be much happier when I can cruise along with choosenim[3] and lockfiles and not have to worry about Makefile + submodules shenanigans.&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;nim-lang&amp;#x2F;nimble#readme&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;nim-lang&amp;#x2F;nimble#readme&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;[2] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;status-im&amp;#x2F;nimbus-build-system#readme&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;status-im&amp;#x2F;nimbus-build-system#readme&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;[3] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;dom96&amp;#x2F;choosenim#readme&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;dom96&amp;#x2F;choosenim#readme&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Nim 1.6.2</title><url>https://nim-lang.org/blog/2021/12/17/version-162-released.html</url></story>
