For those that don't know its also built upon OTP, the erlang vm that makes concurrency and queues a trivial problem in my opinion.
Absolutely wonderful ecosystem.
I've been wanting to make Gleam my primary language, but I fear LLMs have frozen programming language advancement and adoption for anything past 2021.
But I am hopeful that Gleam has slid just under the closing door and LLMs will get up to speed on it fast.
This isn't correct. It can compile to run on the BEAM: that is the Erlang VM. OTP isn't the Erlang VM; rather, "OTP is set of Erlang libraries and design principles providing middle-ware to develop [concurrent/distributed/fault tolerant] systems."
Gleam itself provides what I believe is a substantial subset of OTP support via a library: https://github.com/gleam-lang/otp
Importantly: "Gleam has its own version of OTP which is type safe, but has a smaller feature set. [vs. Elixir, another BEAM language with OTP support]"
