Rust for now, by a wide margin. But I'm following other languages that I think have the potential to surpass it, including Vale (promises way more than it delivers currently), Koka, Hylo, maybe Lobster.

Honest question, what would make you pick Gleam over Elixir? Both seem to have significant overlap

[-] FizzyOrange@programming.dev 7 points 2 months ago

Isn't Elixer dynamically typed?

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago

Oh, I forgot that detail, makes sense. Does Gleam already have something equivalent to Phoenix for elixir?

[-] FizzyOrange@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

I dunno it looks well designed but I dunno why I would use it instead of Rust.
