Gleam v1.5.0 introduces several developer experience and productivity improvements. Notable changes include context-aware exhaustiveness errors, silent compilation options, the ability to run dependency modules without compiling the main code, and prettier error messages for runtime crashes. There are also enhancements in code actions, such as automatically adding missing patterns, autocompletion for variables and arguments, and useful suggestions for missing imports. Additionally, the update includes more readable documentation and inferred minimum Gleam version requirements in projects.
