Mission accomplished

I demand more adorable pets + Gleam photos

The BEAM is such a superpower

Had a fun little Gleam social today at London southbank! Always good to hang out with the Gleamlins

This is so good I could cry

Hey folks, it's been a little while since I've released a video. Here's one talking about how to decode dynamic data in Gleam - a super important topic! Take a look 👀 youtu.be/JPGiHrtWJCg

If you can, sponsor Louis on GitHub. He is doing a great job of evolving a new programming language that runs in the BEAM: Gleam. github.com/lpil #GleamLang

If we went bouldering at a London climbing as a Gleam social would you be interested? Super chill vibes! No competition. I'm a total beginner myself. :)

Holy crap why does a "budget" CD player cost £360 these days?

I've been struggling to find Gleam sponsorship in recent months, growth has stalled. Does anyone have ideas for ways to get more funding that won't steal all my time away from important Gleam development?

Your regular reminder that Gleam is free of any corporate control! We will always put the language and the community first. No bait-and-switch here. The flip-side of this is that we need your support to pay the bills! Do sponsor the project if you can. Thank you 🌟 github.com/sponsors/lpil

Any Elixir Phoenix folks up for adding this feature to the Hex API? It would be super useful for the Gleam team! github.com/hexpm/hexpm/...

spray bottles have a #Trigger, right? here's lucy of @gleam.run fame with her trusty spray bottle

Hint hint

I heard that the new Go version of the TypeScript compiler will be using LSP rather than a custom protocol, is that confirmed?

VSCode can offer JavaScript refactorings which take additional input from the user (see the first gif, it takes a new name). We want to have similar for Gleam, but we can't work out a way to do this with language server protocol. Is it possible? Help! 💜 code.visualstudio.com/docs/typescr...

How do I get dependabot to stop creating labels? I've specified no labels in the config and it continues to make new ones and add them to its PRs.

Hey Gleam code compiled to JS just got ~30% faster on nightly
