Over the last week I discovered Crystal, via a framwork called Lucky.
So I started to do a bit of digging and Crystal sounds pretty awesome. Heavily inspired by Ruby, it looks like it could be an easy transition over to Crystal for any Ruby developer.
One of the best features I can see is that it uses the compiler to find errors and NULL references, meaning you can find issues with their easy to understand messages quicker.
I am going to be looking into Crystal a lot more, if you’re interested I would say go and check out the Chicargo Crystal podcast by Jack Thorne.
