Thanks to one of the discussions at the #GleamGathering, we decided to add more options to support Gleam development financially: now you can do it via direct bank transfer ⭐ All the details: gleam.run/sponsor
Navy background, pink headline "New ways to support Gleam!"; below the headline there's a graphic that shows screen of the "Sponsor" page from gleam.run and its text: "Sponsorship and donations. Support Gleam's development by sponsoring us! he Gleam project" and the description as well as 3 pink buttons: Github Sponsors, Bank Transfer, Liberapay.

What's going on here? This looks really interesting, is it related to LiveView Native or something else entirely?

2025 SO Developer Survey results are out and... wow! Gleam is the second most desired language. It's the first time we appeared in the survey and it's an unexpected result! Being listed next to @rust-lang.org @elixirlang.bsky.social & @ziglang.bsky.social makes us proud! Thanks, everyone who voted!
Graphic with yellow background, Gleam's mascot and headline "Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2025: Most desired languages". Below that there's a screenshot from the survey: "Programming, scripting, and markup languages
Rust is yet again the most admired programming language (72%), followed by Gleam (70%), Elixir (66%) and Zig (64%). Gleam is a new addition to the list, and for good reason - developers like it!"

Anyone have suggestions for other browsers? I really love Chrome’s profile management — I use this frequently throughout my day to separate my work, personal, and developer bookmarks and sessions. Firefox just couldn’t cut it for this, but I may just have to use it. Open to other suggestions!

Let’s hear from people that use Gleam in production! @markholmes.bsky.social of Williams & Holmes, LLC: “What’s so great about Gleam isn’t how fast and simple it is to build things –although that is true– but how easy it is to come back later and refactor!”

Do you sync with an overall health app or do you use both apps? I’m using Apple Health and few things connect to it — would the Oura ring and (in my case) an Apple Watch compete or overlap on the same workout and double count, if I’m wearing both? I too can’t sleep with a watch on :(

This is a cracked release with language support for debug printing, git dependencies, the ability to jump to type definition, 6 new code actions, and a huge performance boost for the js target as the cherry on top 🍒

🌱 I've made a persistent array based on rrb-vectors in Gleam! It's as fast or faster than Erlangs sparse arrays, supports "effictively constant" time slicing and concatentations, and comes with tons of utility functions! hexdocs.pm/iv/index.html
