This free online converter lets you convert code from Gleam to Rust in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Gleam | Rust |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Clean, simple, and influenced by ML-family languages; designed for readability and ease of use. | C-like, expressive, and more complex; includes advanced features like macros and pattern matching. |
Paradigm | Functional, immutable by default, and designed for concurrent, fault-tolerant systems (Erlang/BEAM). | Multi-paradigm (primarily systems programming), supports functional, imperative, and concurrent programming. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and no nulls; type system inspired by ML languages. | Statically typed with strong type inference, ownership, and lifetimes for memory safety. |
Performance | Runs on the BEAM VM, optimized for concurrency and reliability rather than raw speed. | Compiled to native code, offers high performance comparable to C/C++. |
Libraries and frameworks | Smaller ecosystem, can use Erlang/Elixir libraries via BEAM interoperability. | Large and rapidly growing ecosystem (crates.io), many libraries and frameworks for various domains. |
Community and support | Small but friendly and growing community, less mature support and resources. | Large, active, and well-established community with extensive documentation and support. |
Learning curve | Gentle learning curve, especially for those familiar with functional programming. | Steeper learning curve due to ownership, lifetimes, and advanced features. |
