Key differences between C and Gleam
| Characteristic | C | Gleam |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Procedural, uses braces for code blocks, semicolons to end statements, and a minimalistic, low-level syntax. | Modern, clean, and indentation-based syntax inspired by ML-family languages; no semicolons or braces. |
| Paradigm | Procedural and imperative programming. | Functional programming, with strong emphasis on immutability and pure functions. |
| Typing | Static, weak typing with manual memory management. | Static, strong typing with type inference and no nulls. |
| Performance | Very high performance, close to hardware, suitable for systems programming. | Good performance, compiles to Erlang BEAM or JavaScript, but not as fast as C for low-level tasks. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Extensive, mature ecosystem for systems, embedded, and application development. | Smaller ecosystem, leverages Erlang/Elixir libraries, growing but limited compared to C. |
| Community and support | Large, global, and well-established community with decades of resources. | Small but active and growing community, mostly centered around functional and Erlang/Elixir enthusiasts. |
| Learning curve | Steep, due to manual memory management and low-level concepts. | Gentler, especially for those familiar with functional programming, but new concepts for imperative programmers. |
