Jak is Gleam Rust streaming! www.twitch.tv/giacomo_cava...

Gleam Gathering is almost here! @lpil.uk will be celebrating Gleam’s (almost) second birthday, sharing insights from the past two years, key milestones, and plans for what’s next. Check out the full list of speakers: 👉 gleamgathering.com#speakers

Ok hear me out, @gleam.run Valentine's cards

sigh

Last chance to get your opinion hear before I close the Gleam developer survey and start my analysis! Shape what the next year of Gleam will be! developer-survey.gleam.run

New blogpost time! I also added some really fun interactive bits 👀 giacomocavalieri.me/writing/test...

ten years ago today no one clapped

BREAKING: WIN 🏳️‍⚧️ 💥 The High Court just refused Sex Matters' permission to ban trans women from the Hampstead ponds. We're relieved that the ponds can remain a place where trans people have always belonged. Thank you to the all the people that pushed back against division.

Would you organisation sponsor Gleam if it could do so via a USA tax-deductible foundation?

Friendly reminder that there's still time to fill in the survey! Anyone can, no need to be a seasoned Gleam developer!

So far we have: - accordion - tabs - toggle - tooltip Building these takes a significant amount of effort. A lot of care goes into accessibility, sensible keyboard interactions, docs, api design… It’s fun, I don’t mind doing it, but I also don’t mind affording rent too yaknow 😅

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone supporting Gleam through GitHub Sponsors 💜 We couldn’t do it without you. Every release, every feature shipped - you make it possible!

I can't tell which country this is referring to, and that's scary

Please fill in the Gleam end-of-year developer survey if you have not 🙏 You don't have to be a full-on Gleam user yet! We're interested in all perspectives developer-survey.gleam.run

happy "netflix and chill" day to all who celebrate

That's a lot of downloads 🤯

Can anyone recommend a good Inkscape tutorial? More and more being able to make simple graphics would help with Gleam work.

Do you have (a) Gleam in your eye? The Gleam community wants to know. Until Jan 19, participate in the Gleam survey! developer-survey.gleam.run

Have you seen our 2025 summary? 🔥 There will be another one, based on your experience with Gleam! Share your thoughts in the survey: developer-survey.gleam.run

So what Rust binary serialisation library is the go-to now that bincode is deprecated?

Gleam development is possible thanks to sponsors like Daniele and you! Thank you for your support ❤️ Learn more here ➡️ gleam.run/sponsor/

Everyone can have their say in the survey, no need to be a seasoned Gleamlin!

I'm documenting conventions in Gleam! Is there anything you'd especially want me to include?

Going to be back in Paris between the 3rd and 5th of February! Anyone available then to meet up at some point?

Help us learn more about Gleam in 2025 by filling out the survey!

Time to wrap up the year, let’s look at some numbers 🤓 But before we do: thank you everyone for supporting Gleam's journey in 2025! Huge thank you to every contributor, sponsor, supporter, to all the Gleamlins and Gleam-curious people. You rock! ⭐

Tristan Sloughter is one of the most impactful maintainers in the BEAM world. Everyone writing Elixir, Erlang, or Gleam has greatly benefitted from his work, without a doubt. I'm now sponsoring him, and if you're a BEAMer I think you should too! github.com/sponsors/tsl...

2025 has been an incredible year for Gleam adoption, but sadly not for funding, with GitHub sponsorship dropping ~10%. It's not a disaster as we're careful with finances, but it's not a good trend. How can we do better at turning users into supporters? A sufficiently funded ecosystem benefits all!

Time to get to know you better! The Gleam Developer Survey 2025 is open now: developer-survey.gleam.run Help us understand where the Gleam community and ecosystem are today: how people are using the language, what’s working well and what still needs some polishing.

We used a lot of physical maps before the internet and instead of tossing them all, I haven’t used wrapping paper for over a decade.

At very short notice I'm going to Paris tomorrow, and I'll be staying there for a couple of days. Any Gleamlins or other cool people in Paris want to meet up on Saturday or Sunday?

Gleam v1.14.0 is out now! Merry Christmas everyone! 🎁 gleam.run/news/the-hap...

Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone! I've made a video covering all the changes in Gleam 1.14 along with visual code examples, if that's more your cup of tea: youtu.be/Ux9mT-XULwM Enjoy!

Many of you will have started your christmas breaks, but trust me, this 30mins is worth it. @sachajudd.com's closing from #FFConf is now live. It's not your usual nostalgia/look at what it was, but real meaty inspiration as to what we can do now. Treat yourself! www.youtube.com/watch?v=29-s...

Cheeky Friday #FFConf talk watch? Perhaps @gearsco.de on his personal journey "6 to 16: A child's programming journey" - www.youtube.com/watch?v=anF9...

Gleam v1.14.0-rc2 is out for testing github.com/gleam-lang/g...

The recording of my #ffconf talk is out! I'm really happy with how it turned out and I think others enjoyed it too. Go watch it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=anF9...

I wrote another article! Bit arrays are a really powerful feature of Gleam, but they can be quite difficult to understand as a lot of their behaviour isn't well documented and left up to experimentation. This post details all of the options and how they work. Enjoy! gearsco.de/blog/bit-arr...

what if somebody made a code forge that does *not* charge you to use your own computer

If you haven't tried this before, you should, regardless of your gender. If you have some salt lying around, that makes it even better. #tomatoesarethenewapples
