Characteristic | PHP | Gleam |
---|---|---|
Syntax | C-style, imperative, and scripting-oriented syntax with embedded HTML support. | Clean, ML-inspired syntax with strong emphasis on readability and functional constructs. |
Paradigm | Primarily imperative and object-oriented, with some functional features. | Purely functional, emphasizing immutability and pattern matching. |
Typing | Dynamically typed (with optional static typing in recent versions). | Statically and strongly typed with type inference. |
Performance | Interpreted, generally slower than compiled languages but optimized for web workloads. | Compiles to Erlang or JavaScript, leveraging BEAM VM for high concurrency and performance. |
Libraries and frameworks | Extensive ecosystem with mature frameworks like Laravel, Symfony, and WordPress. | Smaller ecosystem, can use Erlang/Elixir libraries, but lacks dedicated frameworks. |
Community and support | Large, mature, and active community with abundant resources and support. | Small but growing community, limited resources and support compared to PHP. |
Learning curve | Gentle learning curve, especially for beginners in web development. | Steeper learning curve due to functional paradigm and static typing. |
