I’ve been using Crystal since 2016, but have recently started to learn Rust. Rust definitely makes me appreciate Crystal’s pretty robust std lib. it’s more like Go in that sense.

What's the state of crystal's concurrency ? I think i've read something on HN saying it wasn't quite there yet..

You mean parallelism? Concurrency has been there for years. Parallelism was available under a flag a few months ago. I do t know the current status since I don’t need it.

sorry yeah i mean parallelism. Is the model an event loop running on single thread , like with with node.js ?

When you say you don't need it, don't you use crystal for developing backend APIs ?
