I can completely relate. To me the greatest thing is the tooling around it. Using tide[0] on even plain js codebase is just amazing.

I really wish ruby had a TypeRuby compiler (to regular ruby). I know about crystal, but I still want regular Ruby, just with a type checker at compile time, not runtime.
