We are announcing a new Crystal release 1.22.0 with several new features and bug fixes.
Pre-built packages are available on GitHub Releases and our official distribution channels. See crystal-lang.org/install for installation instructions.
Below we list the most remarkable changes in the language, compiler, and stdlib. For more details, visit the full changelog.
Crystal processes exit immediately when writing to STDOUT or STDERR fails with EPIPE. This closely resembles the default behaviour of the SIGPIPE signal. Previously, the failing write would raise IO::Error, which typically prints an error message and exits. This error message is now removed (#17335).
