Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Happy Crystal user and code contributor here. (Also created https://github.com/compumike/crystal-docker-quickstart in case you want to try Crystal without installing anything.) In my opinion:
- Slow compile times are still a pain for iteration.
- The REPL / interpreter mode is still rough around the edges.
As far as companies using Crystal:
- We’re using it happily in production at Heii On-Call https://heiioncall.com/status
- Kagi is using it for their search engine backend https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32687071
- Other companies using it list: https://crystal-lang.org/used_in_prod/

Crystal for Rubyists
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.

Marten, a Crystal web framework that makes building web apps productive and fun
My side project https://totalrealreturns.com/ is now about 5k lines of Crystal. There are some rough edges: in particular I think it could use a better templating solution (a port of HAML would be ideal!), and there are some failure modes with the Redis connection pool that have required workarounds.
This includes unit tests: the built-in spec framework is great and much like rspec. https://crystal-lang.org/reference/1.6/guides/testing.html
I'm now starting to use Crystal for internal backend infrastructure and microservices.
For anyone who wants to kick the tires on Crystal, I built a crystal-docker-quickstart project template: https://github.com/compumike/crystal-docker-quickstart works without having to install anything locally. (Assuming you have docker.) You can have your own, home-built "Hello world" static binary in under a minute:
git clone https://github.com/compumike/crystal-docker-quickstart.git my_app && cd my_app && ./d_dev

Crystal Programming Language
If you'd like to try out Crystal without installing anything locally, I've created a tiny Docker container with a Crystal project template:
https://github.com/compumike/crystal-docker-quickstart
For example, you may do:
git clone https://github.com/compumike/crystal-docker-quickstart.git my_app

Crystal Programming Language
I always plug this when given the chance: https://github.com/ffwff/lilith
Full multi tasking, POSIX compliant yadda-yadda actual OS written in Crystal. The author was also apparently in high school at the time.
- Porting YJIT to Rust

awesome-low-level-programming-languages
You can remove the runtime from Crystal and use it as a low level language. Proof.

Ask HN: Is there a simple and minimal language like C but without its footguns?
Pascal, Zig, V and possibly Crystal. Or Das C although arguably that is subset of D.
V isn't anywhere near finish. The closest thing should be Zig. But that is far from finish as well.
Crystal is more like Go than C. But I mean someone wrote a OS [1] using Crystal in her spare time.
Or just plan old Pascal.
