Crystal, to power simple cli applications that are easy to write (it is basically Ruby), fast (it is statically typed, and compiled), and easy to distribute (static binaries are supported, and Windows builds are possible.
- EdwinLarkin 6y agoWindows builds are possible? Can you tell me more? I skipped Crystal because I absolutely need windows binaries.
- captn3m0 6y agoYou can't cross-compile yet, and it depends on WSL. I think proper windows support is one of the v1 (or soon after v1) targets.
- replwoacause 6y agoSame. Pretty sure the Windows support isn’t there yet. Last I checked anyway....
- strzibny 6y agoI will use Crystal for the exact same purpose and reasoning. I don't like Go :).
