amber VS kemal

Technologically robust, making use of open source frameworks that ensure scalability of usage and auditability of the codebase. So, no PHP-based rickety structures or the secret devising of some lone wolf developer. This can't be trusted by anyone: its development must be done in the public repositories. Consider using a Crystal framework such as Amber, which is a compiled-to-binary Ruby clone, lightning-fast (it can handle over 1 million+ requests per second) and compatible with the expansive Rails ecosystem. Or any other solid language base, such as Go or Java.

I'm in a similar situation with the Amber Framework. I'm not one of the original creators of Amber, I just took it over last year (2022). So I have a decent size code base to maintain with potential for breaking changes.

I'd love to see two docs there:

hey r/webdev, i have a side project i want to make, where users with different logins can upload music files onto a server via ftp, and listen to it back via mpd. I've decided for the meantime, on using the [amber framework](https://amberframework.org/). Each user will have a basic username/password login with *optional* OTP sent via email, a specific limit on the amount of storage they get (say, 5-10Gb), and a user-specific mpd connection\*

https://luckyframework.org/ one of the web frameworks available in Crystal. There's also Amber, Grip, and SpiderGazel (the most Rails-like).

Amber

Well, I guess have something to share with you! https://github.com/amberframework/amber

There are two pretty big web frameworks in the Crystal world right now, one is Kemal which strives to be the Sinatra or Flask of the Crystal world (lightweight, supporting plugins), and the other is Crystal which is trying to be the Ruby on Rails or Django of the Crystal world (full-featured, opinionated).

https://luckyframework.org/ . Kemal is even faster but it's mostly for APIs. In my opinion it's on par with Actix with much, much better developer experience.

It's been around for a while under development. It had it's 1.0.0 release in March 2021. There's been two (online) Crystal conferences, and there's two Crystal books published. There's a decent ecosystem of "shards" and there are a couple of Crystal web frameworks and ORMS that are similar to Sinatra or Rails-like. If you already know Ruby, learning Crystal is super easy.

They’re all good to try IMO, another is https://kemalcr.com which is akin to Sinatra if you just want to get an HTTP server with routes setup quickly.

Kemal (like Sinatra, I really like this one): https://kemalcr.com/

As an example, consider this small Kemal application:
