Kemal: Fast, simple web framework for Crystal
- vortico 11y agoI like how Websockets is built in and considered as a primary feature. I use it more often than REST endpoints these days in my applications.
- sdogruyol 11y agoAuthor here, You can check this for a realtime web application with Kemal + React using WebSockets https://github.com/f/kemal-react-chat https://github.com/f/kemal-react-chat
- jalopy 11y agoVery cool stuff - love to see the power and expressiveness of Ruby in a much faster form. Frameworks like this help make the ecosystem more legitimate.
- gorkemyurt 11y agolol super cool logo.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fez https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fez
- jballanc 11y agoNice to see benchmarks reported using a modern, reliable benchmarking tool. Impressive numbers too!
- jtmarmon 11y agolooks nice and awesome benchmarks...checkout the memory comparison in node vs kemal: http://kemalcr.com/docs/websockets/ http://kemalcr.com/docs/websockets/ Crystal (Kemal) CPU 1.85 Memory 11.2 MB Node.js (ws) CPU 38.95 Memory 906.3 MB impressive
- sdegutis 11y agoI've never heard of Crystal until now. It seems pretty darn neat. Is it new and gaining traction, or what?
- VeejayRampay 11y agoI'm wondering too and really hope it does. It's got the niceness of Ruby's syntax with the additional benefits of speed, which would be a deadly combination.
- ksec 11y agoJust a Reminder on Donation. https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/crystal-lang https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/crystal-lang Matz donated as well.
- crisopolis 11y agoYeah, I've also never heard of Crystal until now. Could it be better than Elixir or nah?
- sdogruyol 11y agoIt's not correct to say that it's better than X. But you can be sure that Crystal is pretty good :)
- crisopolis 11y agoI agree, my bad. I might just try to make an API with Crystal (cause boredom).
- sdogruyol 11y agoFor those who want to learn Crystal there's Crystal for Rubyists http://www.crystalforrubyists.com/ http://www.crystalforrubyists.com/ which is totally free with PDF, EPUB and MOBI downloads. P.S: It's not just for Rubyists.
- fuzzythinker 11y agoCrystal is too small of an audience for multiple frameworks. Hope the other framework[1] authors will chip in and support Kemal to make the Crystal ecosystem even greater.
