Thanks!!


There’s no “unknown” or “any” in Gleam, it’s not possible to cheat the type system that way


Speaker here! I'm really happy about this talk, I hope people enjoy it as much as I enjoyed delivering it :)


“We wouldn't be using Gleam if it wasn't a safe, sensible - almost boring - choice.” - I think this has become one of my new favourite quotes


Exciting to see new Gleam production uses pop up! Great writeup :)


I have to say, it's been great for hosting my little server! I ssh into it to code using Helix and it's been really good at compiling Gleam and running the language server as well :)


Amazing to hear success stories of Gleam in production! Running on the beam really feels like a super power


Omg yes, pattern matching is such an amazing feature I miss it dearly in languages that don't have it!


Implementing the decision tree optimisation was such a rewarding process, worth every minute I spent head scratching!


Gleam is great too!
