During the festive season, I wanted to learn something fun and dive into the BEAM ecosystem. I ended up choosing Gleam for its strong type system, as I was looking for something completely different from my usual go-to, Clojure.

I’ve had a great time writing Gleam so far, and if you’re looking for something new to experiment with, I highly recommend giving it a try.

This article documents my journey into web development with Gleam.
