GodotSteam VS crystal

Here I'm already trying to use dll and template from windows prebuild win64-g353-s158-gs3221.zip from https://github.com/CoaguCo-Industries/GodotSteam/releases, same results

get libgodotsteam.so + libsteam_api.so from here: https://github.com/CoaguCo-Industries/GodotSteam/releases/tag/g352-s157-gdn363

That at least gives me hope that the ecosystem will adapt quickly. And I noticed GodotSteam for instance delivered a 4.0 compatible release today already: https://github.com/Gramps/GodotSteam/releases

Wild to me this is being released on the iphone before being mac compatible on steam considering it already runs flawlessly on mac when you import the files from a windows pc and paste two files into the install folder and run it. I just did this and it's perfect, it would literally take him minutes of his time to make this available to OSX users.

You need this Godot build first, it is practically Godot for building games with Steam.

I like the first code example on https://crystal-lang.org

Obviously as an interpreted language, it's never going to be as fast as something like C, Rust, or Go. Traditionally the ruby maintainers have not designed or optimized for pure speed, but that is changing, and the language is definitely faster these days compared to a decade ago.

If you like the ruby syntax/language but want the speed of a compiled language, it's also worth checking out Crystal[^1]. It's mostly ruby-like in syntax, style, and developer ergonomics.[^2] Although it's an entirely different language. Also a tiny community.

Crystal is a nice language that's not only simple to read and write but performs very well too. And the documentation is amazing as well.

Ruby is a super fun scripting language. I much prefer it to python when I need something with a little more "ooomph" than bash. It's just...nice...to write in. Ruby performance has come a long way in the last decade as well. There's libraries for pretty much everything.

My modern programming toolkit is basically golang + ruby + bash and I am never left wanting.

I do find Crystal (https://crystal-lang.org/) really interesting and am hoping it has its own "ruby on rails" moment that helps the language reach a tipping point in popularity. All the beauty of ruby with all of the speed of Go (and then some, it often compares favorably to languages like rust in benchmarks).
