This is a website I developed in Crystal for hosting API documentation for Crystal shards (aka gems, crates, libraries, etc). It's built in Crystal itself and is using Postgres, Kemal, the built-in doc generation tooling, and Lexbor. I've been working on this for a number of months and I'm proud of where it's gotten. All feedback welcome!<p>Repo: <a href="https://github.com/nobodywasishere/crystaldoc.info">https://github.com/nobodywasishere/crystaldoc.info</a>
Why isn't crystal gaining much adoption? It seems like a very solid language as it looks like Ruby (even Matz gave praise to crystal) it's built on LLVM (blazing fast) and the library ecosystem is growing.<p>What does it need (other than probably true Ruby interop) for mass adoption?<p>Is there any companies using and making bank with crystal in production?
