Key differences between Clojure and Gleam
| Characteristic | Clojure | Gleam |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Lisp-like, uses lots of parentheses, prefix notation, minimalistic and homoiconic. | Erlang/ML-inspired, uses indentation and infix notation, more conventional and readable for most programmers. |
| Paradigm | Functional, with strong emphasis on immutability and concurrency; also supports some object-oriented features. | Purely functional, with a focus on simplicity, immutability, and strong type safety. |
| Typing | Dynamically typed, with optional static type hints and spec system. | Statically typed, with strong and sound type inference. |
| Performance | Runs on the JVM (or JavaScript/CLR), generally good performance but can have overhead from dynamic typing. | Compiles to Erlang BEAM bytecode, inherits Erlang's lightweight concurrency and reliability, generally fast for concurrent workloads. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Rich ecosystem, can use Java libraries directly, many mature libraries and frameworks. | Smaller ecosystem, can interoperate with Erlang/Elixir libraries, but fewer native Gleam libraries. |
| Community and support | Large, active, and mature community with extensive documentation and resources. | Small but growing community, less mature, limited resources and support. |
| Learning curve | Steep, due to Lisp syntax and functional paradigm, but powerful once mastered. | Gentler, especially for those familiar with ML-like languages, but limited resources may pose challenges. |
