What kind of targets is crystal used on? Strictly x86_64 linux?

EDIT: Took a little digging but I found it [1] (and yes it's primarily x86_64 linux+macOS)

Windows will probably be done in a year, but it's hard to say. Hardest part is finding people who want to work on windows support xD

No kidding. (I wasn't complaining btw nor was I even focused on OS support, I was curious about which arches people use it on).

What are the popular use cases - either ones driving current development or ones where it's best suited?

Right now people mainly use it for web apps, sometimes data processing. With windows support, I think there would be a rush to make cross platform GUI apps.
