I will say it's more like statically typed Ruby. It has many frameworks for building web applications of which the most popular seems to be Amber. Unfortunately it has a small community. For instance in my opinion one would rather build a web application using ruby than crystal. The only ruby-like language that has gained some level of success and popularity is elixir.
