Listen "Gleam Unpacked: A Friendly, Type-Safe Path to Scalable Software"

Episode Synopsis

Join us as we explore Gleam, the friendly, type-safe language designed for building scalable systems. We discuss how Gleam compiles to Erlang for high-concurrency backends and to JavaScript for frontend/lightweight apps, why its functional, modular approach boosts reliability, and what PQ42’s breakdown reveals about real-world usage. From hello world to case expressions, we’ll connect core ideas like types, functions, and modularity with why this matters—even if you’re not coding every day—showing how these design choices can improve software quality, collaboration, and tech decision-making.Note: This podcast was AI-generated, and sometimes AI can make mistakes.
