This presentation was recorded at GOTO Copenhagen 2024. #GOTOcon #GOTOcph https://gotocph.com Giacomo Cavalieri - Gleam Core Team Member @giacomo_cavalieri RESOURCES https://bsky.app/profile/giacomocavalieri.me https://twitter.com/giacomo_cava https://giacomocavalieri.me https://github.com/giacomocavalieri Links https://gleam.run https://tour.gleam.run https://exercism.org/tracks/gleam ABSTRACT In this talk we’ll embark on a journey to discover Gleam: a “friendly language for building type-safe systems that scale!” We’ll learn about the design philosophy underpinning it, what does it even mean for a programming language to be friendly, and what’s the ace up Gleam’s sleeve that enables you to write highly concurrent and fault tolerant systems. This talk is for everyone and by the end of it you’ll have all you need to keep your Gleam journey going and become a true Gleamlin!
