tldr: crystal is awesome!
I tried crystal recently to dump some data from a GraphQL endpoint into Redisgraph. I had done the same with Rust, but string manipulation was much simpler in Crystal (the string interpolation is amazing!) so it was much simpler to quickly throw together the queries I needed. I think for me, rust is something I'd use for building a solid library, whereas Crystal would serve more as an alternative to Go, something more for quickly assembling some building blocks into applications or doing glue stuff with decent performance.
