Description

Make scalable and reliable code easily...

Gleam is a new kid on the block, a new language that's transpiling to Erlang and JavaScript so, it's letting us build projects which can run on the server side using Erlang or JavaScript (Node or Deno) and on the client side, in the browser, using JavaScript.

This book is the way you can build your hat for Gleam and start building applications for backend, frontend, or full-stack, we are going to give you the tools and you can roll your ideas.

Chapters

  • Let me introduce you Gleam to do

    Let me introduce you to the Gleam language. We are going to talk about the ideas that brought us Gleam, what exactly Gleam is, what could we do perfectly with Gleam and where we assume that Gleam isn't fittable. Join the Gleam community and start enjoying while using a great programming language.

  • The two ways of Gleam to do

    Let's talk about our options. On the one hand, we can use Gleam with BEAM where you can join the development of a vibrant community on the server side. On the other hand, we can use Gleam with JavaScript and deploy it for the server, the browser, or whatever environment where you can use NodeJS, Deno or Bun. Don't worry, it's not something you chose only once, you can change whenever and try both choices.

Manuel Ángel Rubio Jiménez

Polyglot Developer, Writer, Manager and Trainer

He started programming at the age of 12 with languages such as GW-BASIC, QBasic, MODULA-2, Pascal and C. When he started working he already mastered Java, JavaScript, PHP, Perl, Ruby, Python among others and later he would start with Rust , Golang, Erlang, Elixir and Gleam. But what attracts him most is being able to teach programming in those languages to others. He began his training as a teacher attending a course in London and later as a mentor for Erlang, Elixir, OTP, Ecto and other technologies within Erlang Solutions Ltd. Writing books is for Manuel another way not only to teach but also to learn, as and as Feynman said.
