Gleam is now supported by Black Hammer Consulting!

They help organisations move past tech debt and legacy code, and chose to support #Gleamlang because they see it as a beautifully simple language with a welcoming community ⭐

Gleam is a friendly language for building type-safe systems that scale. Though if I had to use a single word to describe it, that would be productive! If you want to get a feel for what Gleam's developer experience is like, this is the talk for you!

I know, I know: dealing with SQL is hard and ORMs seem like a great choice to avoid dealing with it. But sticking to "plain old SQL" can actually have a great developer experience! Here's why you might not need an ORM after all

“We wouldn't be using Gleam if it wasn't a safe, sensible - almost boring - choice.” This might be my new favourite quote
gleam.run Gleam Programming Language @gleam.run · 23d
"So far, the only bugs we've seen in our Gleam codebase are mistakes in business logic - nothing that would actually crash in production," says Georges Boris, Chief Design Officer at Uncover.

"The rewrite took only 3 weeks. Mind that I'd never written a single line of Gleam code before that." - @lexx.gr shares how Radical Elements have rewritten their startup from PHP to Gleam ⭐

Go check the full blog post: www.radical-elements.com/minor-epipha...
Headline: Gleam in productionQuote:“The rewrite started as an experiment, never meant to actually replace the existing code. It went so well that we had no reason not to go forward with it. And secondly, the switch to Gleam made our code feel more robust. The gains in productivity from switching were already visible.”source: radical-elements.com all on navy background, there's a tiny pink starfish in the bottom right corner
