Nim is strongly, statically typed. Also, I agree and aside from performance it's why I started using Nim instead of Python for my gamedev hobby. Dynamic typing isn't good for large projects. Nim has great type inference though, so you get the readability of Python but with strong compile time type guarantees.
Eg;
type SpecialId = distinct int # This int is now type incompatible with other ints
proc handleId(id: SpecialId) =
# ... do something with id.
