This is great Serdar.

As an alternative to Chapter 2 I’ll also share https://github.com/compumike/crystal-docker-quickstart my project template which lets you get a Crystal (currently 1.6.2) dev environment running with just Docker. Good for kicking the tires, which is what I think your audience is probably wanting to do! And then eventually can install a binary package as you suggest.

Thanks a lot! Happy to have your PR :) https://github.com/sdogruyol/crystal-for-rubyists-en
Nice! It doesn't work in Windows native, right? Asking because newbies might come from there (although I bet most of them use WSL).
It’s getting pretty close.

Windows status: https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/issues/5430

Hmm I don’t know — I don’t have a Windows or WSL setup to test with right now. What breaks?
