This free online converter lets you convert code from Gleam to PHP in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Gleam | PHP |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Has a syntax inspired by ML languages (like OCaml), concise and designed for safety and clarity. | C-style syntax, designed for embedding in HTML, more permissive and flexible. |
Paradigm | Functional, with strong emphasis on immutability and pure functions. | Primarily imperative and object-oriented, with some functional features. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and no nulls. | Dynamically typed (with optional static typing in recent versions), more permissive. |
Performance | Compiles to Erlang BEAM or JavaScript, generally high performance for concurrent workloads. | Interpreted (with JIT in recent versions), optimized for web workloads but not as performant for concurrency. |
Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem, but can use Erlang/Elixir libraries via interop. | Extensive ecosystem with many mature libraries and frameworks (e.g., Laravel, Symfony). |
Community and support | Small but growing community, limited resources and support. | Large, established community with abundant resources, tutorials, and support. |
Learning curve | Steeper learning curve due to functional paradigm and strict typing. | Gentle learning curve, easy to start for beginners, especially for web development. |
