This free online converter lets you convert code from Gleam to VB6 in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Gleam | VB6 |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Modern, concise, and inspired by ML-family languages with significant whitespace and pattern matching. | Verbose, BASIC-like syntax with explicit line endings and block delimiters. |
Paradigm | Functional, with strong emphasis on immutability and pure functions. | Primarily imperative and event-driven, with limited support for object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Statically typed with strong type inference and no nulls. | Dynamically typed by default, with optional static typing using 'Option Explicit'. |
Performance | Compiles to efficient BEAM bytecode (Erlang VM), suitable for concurrent and fault-tolerant systems. | Interpreted or compiled to native Windows binaries, generally fast for desktop apps but limited concurrency. |
Libraries and frameworks | Limited but growing ecosystem, can interoperate with Erlang and Elixir libraries. | Rich set of built-in libraries for Windows GUI and COM, but outdated and unsupported for modern development. |
Community and support | Small but active and modern open-source community. | Large legacy user base, but official support ended and community is shrinking. |
Learning curve | Moderate to steep, especially for those new to functional programming. | Gentle, designed for beginners and rapid application development. |
