Type-safe, scalable language.
Free

Gleam is a friendly, type-safe programming language designed for building scalable systems. It leverages the Erlang virtual machine (BEAM) for concurrency and fault tolerance, offering a modern syntax and functional programming paradigms. Gleam boasts features like fast immutable data structures, a concurrent garbage collector, and a multi-core actor-based concurrency system. The language includes a built-in compiler, build tool, formatter, editor integrations, and package manager. Gleam seamlessly integrates with the BEAM ecosystem, allowing access to thousands of Erlang and Elixir packages. It emphasizes reliability with no null values, clear error messages, and a practical type system, aiming to make development enjoyable and stress-free.
