tutorials to get you familiar with nim

indepth nim syntax and API

this repo serves two purposes for programmers considering nim as their Nth language:
- primary: source code you can execute while reading
  - examples covering ~ 90%% of nim
- secondary: documentation you can read while coding
  - contextual info for the API examples with links to documentation and related references
thus each chapter consists of docs to read and code to run:
- basic to expressive nim
