Excited to try out the new features! #CrystalLang
What's the major improvement in this release compared to 1.15.1?
I hope the breaking changes won't affect my existing projects too much.
Seeing the updates on File.match? is a breath of fresh air!
Can someone explain how to use the new execution contexts?
Loving the community spirit, great job everyone!
These updates are looking good! But where's the documentation?
I'm still struggling with syntax errors in the previous version.
Has anyone tried the preview feature yet? How's it working?
A support for LLVM 20? That's a game changer!
The deprecation of parameter suffixes may confuse some users.
