With talk here of Ruby stagnating, has anyone checked out Crystal? I have not but have been curious about it. | ||

I checked out crystal. It's a nice little language, but it has a very, very long way to go. IDE support is still quite shaky and the developer community is not large enough yet. There are some few good packages and frameworks that work very well though. I think it's still not supported on Windows as of today. | ||

It has similar syntax, but adding explicit types and macros it's a very different language in practice. IMO the two languages can be quite complimentary, I've been exploring using Crystal + MRuby to create apps, it's been fun so far. | ||

One man's stagnation is another's stability, no? | ||
