This free online converter lets you convert code from Gleam to Scheme in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Gleam | Scheme |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Has a modern, clean, and statically-typed syntax inspired by languages like Rust and Elm. | Uses a minimalist, parenthesis-heavy Lisp syntax with prefix notation. |
Paradigm | Primarily functional, with strong emphasis on immutability and pure functions. | Multi-paradigm, but primarily functional; also supports imperative and meta-programming. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and no nulls. | Dynamically typed with minimal type checking at compile time. |
Performance | Runs on the BEAM (Erlang VM), offering good concurrency and fault tolerance, but not as fast as native code. | Performance varies by implementation; some compilers produce fast native code, while interpreters are slower. |
Libraries and frameworks | Smaller ecosystem, but can interoperate with Erlang and Elixir libraries. | Varies by implementation; some have extensive libraries, but overall ecosystem is smaller than mainstream languages. |
Community and support | Growing but still small community, with active development and support. | Long-established academic and hobbyist community, but less mainstream industry support. |
Learning curve | Gentle for those familiar with modern statically-typed functional languages; easier syntax for newcomers. | Steeper due to Lisp syntax and functional concepts, but minimalism can help focused learning. |
