#2I've used it for a small API project, really easy to understand and setup!
There's also a healthy amount of ported gems (Shards) over at:

#3Using a fez (or fes, if you prefer) as a logo for a "Fast, Effective, Simple" framework named "Kemal" is kind of unfortunate/ironic. Kemal Ataturk actually abolished the use of the fez [1].

While Atatürk is likely the most well-known person named Kemal to date, it's a pretty common name, and it means something like "mature" or "complete" [1], which is sort of a good goal to reach, or a quality to advertise, for a framework.

#5OK, OK! I keep seeing news for Crystal lately. I can take a hint, Universe - I'll write a new project in it.

#7For a few seconds I thought this was a reference to C64 KERNAL OS. Turns out it was just bad keming.

#8Kemal is great, lightweight, fast!!! and I’m using it for a growing number of infrastructure / microservices at CircuitLab (exposing JSON APIs, mostly), as well as to serve web requests on my side project at Total Real returns.
If you want to play with Kemal and/or Crystal without installing anything besides Docker, I made https://github.com/compumike/crystal-docker-quickstart . You should be able to add Kemal to shard.yml, edit d_dev to expose port 3000 (there’s a line already there, just uncomment it), and get your first Kemal microservice up in a few minutes :)

Nah fez is cool. Also there are fictional characters with fez (eg, ustura kemal). Besides Kemal Atatürk used to wear one, suited him nicely

Check closely the wikipedia list: The name became truly popular only after 1923, when Atatürk established the Republic of Turkey, and it's mostly popular among Turkish people.
So, even though Atatürk was not the first person to be named Kemal, he practically "owns" the name today.
