This project started with this request: https://github.com/crystal-community/crystal-libraries-neede...

However, it is heavily based on the (abandoned?) py2rb work by Naitoh which I made enhancements to.

IMO, Rubyists should have an easier time with Crystal syntax since it is more similar. Also, the likelihood of having type annotations in Python is much higher than Ruby because type annotations have been around longer in Python, iirc.

But the momentum behind gradual typing in Ruby is much greater due to the input from Stripe and Shopify.
