While, I haven't been using Gleam that much lately, but I just want to mention how incredibly nice the Gleam discord server is. It's the most welcoming programming community I've ever interacted with, bar none. Absolutely wonderful.

Becoming more and more tempted to implement something like Gleams dynamic/decoder for my C# SqlEmbedder shennanigans at work. RepoDB is just kinda meh in terms of error messages, since they seem to just cast to the type you hand them.

My sponsorships have steadily gone down for the last couple of months, if you have a couple of bucks to spare and want to help out that would mean a lot! There's no such thing as a sponsorship that's too small

"The app didn't break a sweat when tickets went on sale!" Another example of Gleam in action ⭐ A non-profit organisation built their ticketing system with Gleam and Lustre
"Gleam in production" headline followed by a quote: "I chose Gleam and Lustre as my tool of choice for the confidence it gave me to release this application through fullstack type safety and use of OTP. The app didn't break a sweat when tickets went on sale!" by Cole from Undefined.Charity.

Software devs, please don't use a genAI logo for your next project Consider instead: - Not having a logo (many popular libraries are just fine without one!) - Simple word art (see curl's logo) - Using existing CC0 (etc.) symbols - If you really want it, seek out an artist/designer in your community

One of the best things about Gleam is our community 🫶 Hop on to learn more, help others, meet people, share your project and be amazed by what others are creating with Gleam!
Screenshot from a website, top section has a rainbow background with headline "The Gleam Community. Welcome, friend! It's good to have you".
The rest of the site has navy background and tiles-style information on different community initiatives:
