🎁 A gift for everyone who releases packages on hex.pm apps.apple.com/it/app/hexy-... A small iOS app to track your work. Silly? Maybe. MacOS version is coming. Android planned. @elixir-lang.org @erlang.bsky.social @theerlef.bsky.social @gleam.run #functionalprogramming

I’m finally shipping the new site and Doorry, my Mac app. Doorry keeps an eye on what’s open and helps you shut it down when you need to. Simple as that. No bloat, no bullshit. www.altumdream.com/doorry (I don’t care about your data, I don't track you, and I’m not selling your habits)

Hey @ludeonstudios.bsky.social , do you like this? I parsed your save files, scored every colonist, passions and traits, and now your colony's MVP lives on my desktop as a macOS widget. No mods or API. Just magic. RimWorld simulates life. Tribune brings it outside the game. altumdream.com/tribune

Released envie for @gleam.run Not because I “know better”. Because I needed a more complete way to handle env vars, so I built one. Typed config, clear failures, no drama.If it’s useful to you too, cool. Docs: hexdocs.pm/envie/ Code: github.com/lupodevelop/... #opensource #gleamlang #beam

First npm package out. Built a remark plugin for Astro that blacks out Markdown blocks like classified documents. Because hiding text should feel illegal. 👉 github.com/lupodevelop/... #astro #markdown #npm

Serious question for the OSS crowd: we talk a lot about #EU digital #sovereignty but most of our repos still live on US platforms. Is that just pragmatism, or pure inertia? Has anyone actually tried mirroring or moving projects to #Codeberg? Looking for real experiences, not flags or slogans.

Today I shipped woof : a logging lib. That made me look back at some older stuff. Has anyone actually used humanize or str in real projects (prod or side)? I’m interested in honest feedback 💜.

Released a logging library for @gleam.run . Dedicated to Echo my dog 🐕 Not because “the ecosystem needed one”. Because I needed it to ship a real project. Import. Log. Done. If you want structure, JSON, namespaces, scoped context. Fine. If not, it shuts up.. github.com/lupodevelop/woof

Just released humanize: a tiny @gleam.run lib to make numbers stop looking like garbage. Bytes, durations, time-ago. No magic. No bullshit. Just readable output. “gleam add humanize” ⭐️ github.com/lupodevelop/humanize 📦 hex.pm/packages/humanize

👀 Has anyone here used cmp_gleam for @gleam.run ? I wrote it, shipped it, and now I’m curious if it’s actually being used outside my editor. No politeness, no ego-strokin. Just honest feedback: Drop the real takes! 🤟🏻 #gleam #opensource #feedback

1/3 : Been writing everything in @gleam.run for months. Every time I think I've got it figured out, Gleam reminds me I know jack shit. And I fucking love it. 💜

Fixed the docs for str 2.0.0 for @gleam.run on Hex. Forgot to update them when I bumped the version. Sorry

Some good noise today 🤩 STR 2.0 crossed 100 downloads. Small library, big milestone for me. Appreciate everyone using it or trying it out. 🤟🏻

💜 distribute 2.1.0 is out. not a patch. not a “small improvement”. just me trying to push distributed computing in @gleam.run a bit further than comfort allows. type-safe. OTP-native. no fluff. still ambitious. still rough in places. but moving... github.com/lupodevelop/...

Alright, that’s the story. If this sounds like your kind of thing, I want to get back up and talk about it. Meetups, confs, basements, improvised stages. If you know where this could land drop a hint, make a connection, pass the word. No quests. No prestige. Only XP.

Back when I was a teen everything was in motion. Hackmeetings, late nights, IRC scrolling nonstop, forum posts half-baked. Write code. Talk about it. Give talks. With slides, without slides, didn’t matter. What mattered was being alive and doing things.

I’ve always used Jekyll with a custom theme for my few (failed) blog attempts. 👾 After an all-nighter with Astro, I’m seriously considering porting the theme over and ditching Ruby, gems, and their lovely collection of ancient dependencies. Anyone wants to try and change my mind?

Pulling an all-nighter with Astro and GSAP, and honestly? I’m using them all wrong. Building a single-page template by breaking it into components for no reason other than the sheer joy of over-engineering. No blog posts, no data. Just clean code and motion.

str 2.0.0 for @gleam.run is out! APIs cleaned up, sharp edges removed, performance less embarrassing. Some things were renamed, moved, or killed so the rest could finally make sense. This is why 1.3.0 was yelling at you. Major release. Finally done. ⭐ github.com/lupodevelop/... #gleam

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

Anyone else, after a short break or partial disconnect, suddenly fall straight into the web-design rabbit hole? Blog ideas, redesigns, “what if I rebuild everything” impulses, and other objectively bad decisions. Or is this just a recurring personal flaw?

I’ve noticed a few people started using cmp_gleam for @gleam.run (cmp for friends). If you’re one of them: how’s it going? What broke, what surprised you, what did you hate more than expected? Feedback welcome. I promise not to argue. Probably.

str 1.3.0 is out. It doesn’t add anything. I already explained why in the previous posts. This is just the line in the sand before 2.0.0 @gleam.run #gleam #unicode #hex #coding

Heads up: I’ll be releasing str 1.3.0 in the next few days. It does basically nothing just deprecation annotations to signal the upcoming 2.0.0. I don’t love changing the rules mid-game, but it’s necessary to clean things up properly. ⚠️ Consider this your warning. (Sorry)

Spent the whole weekend maturing str. Today’s reward: warning: Int is outside JavaScript's safe integer range What a stupid idea it was to mess with FFIs. But, hey, I love this job! @gleam.run

Unicode lied to your terminal. I’m working on display-width–aware APIs for str: columns, truncation, padding, emoji and CJK included. Pure Gleam, no NIFs, no shortcuts. A small distraction before the inevitable major release.

Ok. Now str 1.2.3 😓 is available on hex - Also solved the problem of displaying the logo on hexdoc

Releasing str 1.2.3 a bit (too) earlier than planned. @lpil.uk was spot on about HTML escape handling > thanks for that 💜. Now back to the gleam-orous stuff 😉: cleaning up the codebase, shaving the API surface, and maybe shipping a couple of things people asked for. If luck allows. #gleamlang

Helping a dear friend move from C to OCaml for work. He’s got a manual, but I want to gather extra resources: tutorials, repos, example projects, tips, gotchas, everything that makes the jump less brutal. Ready to pack up all your advice and ship it ASAP 🤟 Anyone here using OCaml? 🐫 Thanks!

One day deep in the @gleam.run community and bam 💥 tons of support for my absurd little libraries. Seriously, you folks are amazing. 🤩 thanks a ton!

str 1.2.2 is out. No new real features. Just fewer fixes, clearer docs, and me admitting the API grew weird. Everything else is now explained, not implied. Two new experimental algorithms: KMP and Sliding. Auto-select if you trust heuristics, pick one if you don’t. ⭐ github.com/lupodevelop/...

I shipped cmp_gleam. A tiny @gleam.run lib for explicit, composable comparators. No derives. No magic. No “trust me bro” ordering. Comparators are values. You compose them or you don’t. It's also compatible with str 😮 📦 hex.pm/packages/cmp... ⭐ github.com/lupodevelop/...

Looking for people to follow. Are there devs here on Gleam / Elixir / Erlang / FP? If you post or build real stuff, I’m here. #gleam #elixir #erlang #fp

I just sponsored @gleam.run small amount, lots of love 💜. first and only project I’ve sponsored so far 🙌. github.com/sponsors/gle...

hey, Strings are hard. Unicode is worse. I recently wrote an article about it, and built str along the way. a Unicode-correct string library for @gleamlang , with zero OTP dependencies. ⭐️️ github.com/lupodevelop/str 📦️ hex.pm/packages/str 📰 dev.to/lupodevelop/...
