6 years with Gleam

The author has been contributing to Gleam since 2018, appreciating its type-safe and scalable approach. Initially involved with Elixir and the BEAM, they found Gleam increased productivity, especially in rapid-change environments like startups. After a venture using Gleam and Elixir, they developed a JavaScript target for Gleam to extend its benefits to frontend development. Relocating to Sweden for a job at Northvolt, they continued leveraging Gleam for personal projects and noted ongoing improvements in the language. Recently, they discussed Gleam's promising future at Code BEAM Stockholm and are open to new opportunities.
