Gleam's 1.0 release was in May and it's still adding major features.
JavaScript support looks interesting. Browsing the package repo, I don't see how to tell which packages are supported on Erlang's VM, when compiling to JavaScript, or both. JavaScript-specific documentation seems pretty thin so far?
- oDot 2y agoYou're right about the lack of FFI-specific docs, but Gleam is such a simple language that it's very workable. I wrote Vleam[0], which allows writing Gleam inside Vue SFCs, and the experience was pretty good even without the docs. You do have to sometime read the source of other Gleam packages to understand how things work, but again -- Gleam is so simple it's not too bad of an experience.

- lpil 2y agoMost of the work for this has been done, the main missing piece is surfacing it in the UI, which someone will hopefully pick up soon.
