On: Comparing Elixir and Go

[bitwalker]

My understanding of Crystal is limited, but I think of the two, Go is the only one you would probably consider comparing it to, because of its native compilation. I don't think it has a very strong emphasis on concurrency, so comparing it to Elixir likely doesn't make much sense. Take that with a grain of salt though, as I'm not super familiar with the language.

[devmunchies → bitwalker]

Crystal has a similar concurrency model to Go, actually. It just doesn't yet have parallelism yet (coming soon).

[andyfleming → devmunchies]

As far as the current interface for concurrency, it has fibers, channels, and futures.
