https://gleam.run/ Gleam is super promising.

[bryanrasmussen]

why would you use Gleam instead of Elixir, is there any benefit to using both of them?

[victorbjorklund]

The benefits would be if you prefer gleam:s syntax and static typing. In the end all compile down to the same Erlang byte code that runs on the BEAM so neither has any performance benefits.

[bryanrasmussen]

ah ok, reading more compiles to JavaScript, generates typescript definitions, can reuse code from all Beam supported languages.

So maybe Gleam as an easier way to integrate JS and Erlang / Elixir?
