I've been following Julia for many years now and it hasn't quite picked up outside the Data Science/Research communities. I'm at a loss to understand why it hasn't gone mainstream. Technically, isn't this a superior language to everything out there if you are getting performance + readability?
To start the discussion, maybe one factor could be the lack of a package manager like npm/crate. What else?
