Gleam is a beautiful language, and what I wish Elixir would become (re:typing).

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.

I don’t mean to minimize the huge effort by the Gleam team; however, Elixir cannot become Gleam without breaking OTP/BEAM in the same ways Gleam does. As it stands now, Elixir is the superior language between the two, if using the full Erlang VM is your goal.

I use many of the otp functions in gleam on thr regular, what functionality cant i call?

Gleam can call any erlang function, and can somewhat handle the idc types. [ im sure it has another name ].

Did i miss something that gleam fails on, because this is one of my concerns.
