Crystal would benefit a lot if ported and packaged for ARM architectures. Those small embedded boards seem the best place to make use of a system language that produces tight and fast native executables. I know there's something for the Raspberry-PI+Raspbian, however I hoped there was an official port for other boards on a more generic distro such as Debian, Armbian or DietPI. Being a bootstrapped compiler (a compiler written in the same language it compiles) makes this even harder to accomplish.
