Description

Reason: distributing executable as Ruby gem is notoriously hard to pull off.

Would it be ok if I tried cloning this idea (awesome one, btw) in Golang / Rust / Crystal / Haskell? Basically, any compiled language in which you can simply distribute binaries for different OSes.

Research direction

The issue proposes cloning colorls in Go, Rust, Crystal, or Haskell because distributing Ruby gems can be difficult. No files, tests, or entry points are identified; first clarify whether a separate implementation belongs in this repository and define the target language, platform scope, and completion criteria.
