I'd been looking for a modern, statically typed, functional language for years, and after using #GleamLang for about a year, I can say I've found it. Didn't expect it to be a BEAM language though!
Shout out to #OCaml, the current runner-up language and #RocLang which I'm looking forward to v0.1 of!
Reading about the Roc programming language, has some neat ideas -- distinction between the "standard library" and separately defined "platforms" is cool. https://www.roc-lang.org/platforms
#roclang published 0.0.0-alpha1 ...
I am really looking forward to it.

I tried #fuzzing and really enjoyed it, so I wrote a blogpost about it! It mentions some #RocLang stuff, but you don't need to know any Roc to read it :)
My first (proper) PR to the #RocLang compiler got merged! :)

I wrote an unofficial package index website for #RocLang. The number of packages is growing quickly, and I have a bunch more that I'm close to releasing!
