Pick Opal if…
Opal suits Ruby developers who want to use Ruby code in browser or JavaScript environments. Its ES2021 target and lack of older-engine fallback are relevant for teams choosing where that code will run.
Pick TypeScript Playground if…
It suits learners, teachers, and developers who want to experiment with TypeScript or JavaScript in a browser without setting up a project. Its single-document focus is useful for examples and small experiments rather than general-purpose Node projects.
