Projects

Completing Windows support

There is ongoing efforts to allow Crystal to work in a native fashion in Windows. From tidying up platform agnostic abstractions, to deal with specific OS API, representation, and setting bases for CI you can help Crystal reach a new land.

The related issue shows the progress made so far.

Formalizing the language

There is no formal document for the semantic of the language. Although there are tons of test in the spec of the compiler to ensure things work as expected, it would be great to have a proper specification of how the language work (or should work). This is not a simple document task. Checking if the compiler comply the specs in one of hidden challenges in this journey.
