I’ve really been using Crystal a world moving from Ruby to Crystal, because I kept running into issues with how Ruby parses certain things.

Presently working on a DSL of Crystal, but keep running into these little issues, which I’ll go into in a more specialized thread.

Look forward to meeting new people.
