I was going to ask if you had time to look at Crystal since you are using GO and wrote about not using any scripting language but I guess you dont :)

But I did, some year and a half ago.

Found nothing that would impress me. Ruby syntax? Who cares? Compiled and with better performance? Well, what's wrong with Golang and Rust? They do fantastically well.

I don't see what niche is Crystal trying to cater to. Other languages have better compilers and a bigger, more developed ecosystem.
