It may be the best on any platform outside of the BEAM, but there are a lot of correlating factors needed to create the ideal concurrency platform that you simply can't do without building them from the ground up.
It's why almost anything outside the BEAM can't make that claim.
- valenterry 4y agoTrue, BEAM is a platform on its own. Scala can use Akka which is also awesome, but doesn't have all the nice things builtin like BEAM. I guess a merge of Scala as the language (because honestly, Erlang & co suck) and BEAM as the platform would be awesome!
- Taikonerd 4y agoA statically-typed language running on BEAM? Sounds like Gleam: https://gleam.run/ https://gleam.run/ (Disclaimer: I haven't used Gleam, I just know it exists.)
- valenterry 4y agoI think as a Scala developer, my expectations/demands can't be matched by Gleam unfortunately. But if it could, then yes!
