Key differences between Carbon and Gleam
| Characteristic | Carbon | Gleam |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | C++-like, modernized with simplified constructs and improved readability. | Clean, ML-inspired syntax similar to Elm or OCaml, designed for clarity and safety. |
| Paradigm | Primarily multi-paradigm with a focus on object-oriented and generic programming. | Functional programming, emphasizing immutability and pattern matching. |
| Typing | Static, strong typing with type inference and modern generics. | Static, strong typing with type inference, no nulls, and exhaustive pattern matching. |
| Performance | Aims for performance close to C++, suitable for systems programming. | Compiles to Erlang BEAM or JavaScript, performance suitable for concurrent and distributed applications. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Limited native libraries; aims for C++ interoperability to leverage existing C++ libraries. | Growing ecosystem, can use Erlang/Elixir libraries, but fewer native Gleam libraries. |
| Community and support | Very early-stage, small community, mostly experimental with limited support. | Small but active community, growing support, and increasing adoption in the Erlang ecosystem. |
| Learning curve | Easier for C++ developers, but new concepts may require adjustment; documentation is limited. | Gentle for those familiar with functional programming; clear syntax and good documentation for beginners. |
