This free online converter lets you convert code from Gleam to TypeScript in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Gleam | TypeScript |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Clean, concise, inspired by ML-family languages (like OCaml and Elm), uses significant whitespace, and has a functional style. | Superset of JavaScript, uses C-style syntax with braces and semicolons, familiar to JavaScript and C-family language users. |
Paradigm | Purely functional, emphasizes immutability and pattern matching. | Multi-paradigm; supports object-oriented, functional, and procedural programming. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong, inferred types and no null or undefined values. | Statically typed (with type inference), but allows gradual typing and can interoperate with untyped JavaScript. |
Performance | Compiles to efficient Erlang or JavaScript code, optimized for BEAM (Erlang VM) performance. | Compiles to JavaScript, so runtime performance is the same as JavaScript. |
Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem, mainly focused on BEAM and functional programming; fewer libraries and frameworks. | Vast ecosystem, can use any JavaScript library or framework (React, Angular, Vue, etc.). |
Community and support | Small but growing community, limited resources and support compared to mainstream languages. | Large, active community with extensive documentation, resources, and support from Microsoft. |
Learning curve | Steeper for those unfamiliar with functional programming or ML-style languages. | Gentle for JavaScript developers; easier for those with experience in C-family languages. |
