Questionable decision making. Why not use Go when minimizing runtime dependencies is first priority? I’d probably just have cleaned up the Ruby code and used something like Ruby-Packer to create binaries. When typing is so important why not use rbs? Makes no sense to me.
- gregors 4y agoAgreed. Go is the obvious clear winner here for a CLI executable.
