This free online converter lets you convert code from Gleam to Delphi in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Gleam | Delphi |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Modern, concise, inspired by ML-family languages (like OCaml and Elm), uses significant whitespace and pattern matching. | Pascal-based, verbose, uses begin/end blocks, semicolons, and a more traditional procedural syntax. |
Paradigm | Functional, immutable by default, emphasizes pure functions and pattern matching. | Primarily object-oriented and procedural, supports event-driven programming. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and no nulls; types are checked at compile time. | Statically typed, but with less type inference; supports both static and dynamic typing in some contexts. |
Performance | Compiles to Erlang BEAM bytecode, inherits Erlang's concurrency and reliability, good for scalable systems. | Compiles to native code (Windows, Linux, macOS), generally faster for desktop applications, good for GUI and system-level apps. |
Libraries and frameworks | Smaller ecosystem, can use Erlang/Elixir libraries via interop, but fewer native libraries. | Rich set of libraries, especially for GUI (VCL, FireMonkey), database, and enterprise development. |
Community and support | Small but growing open-source community, limited commercial support. | Long-established, large community, strong commercial support from Embarcadero. |
Learning curve | Moderate; easier for those familiar with functional programming, but new concepts for imperative programmers. | Gentle for beginners, especially those with Pascal background; easier for building GUIs and desktop apps. |
