I used it a lot over the summer on some pet projects and really enjoyed it. Being a heavy Ruby/Typescript user in recent years it feels like a natural melding of the two. Macros are a really interesting way to achieve many of the same metaprogramming properties of Ruby (although a little awkward to reason about). I used Jamis Buck's book The Ray Tracer Challenge[1] as a fun kind of way to learn the language and ended up learning a good chunk of the language as a result. My biggest complaint is just that it's not more popular - it's ecosystem is pretty web developer-centric and I'd personally love to see it used for more things outside of that.
