Try Gleam
Hacker News | Nov 9, 2026 | nchagnet
Automated excerpt
Gleam is a functional language that targets BEAM, the Erlang VM,1 with a simple syntax and interoperability with the wider BEAM ecosystem (Erlang and Elixir). Interestingly, Gleam can also target JavaScript i.e., Gleam can be compiled into JavaScript and run through Node.js. Gleam types have no methods so piping is used instead.
