Key differences between Scala and Gleam

CharacteristicScalaGleam
SyntaxConcise, expressive, blends object-oriented and functional styles, similar to Java but with more advanced features.Simple, clean, and highly readable, inspired by ML-family languages, enforces immutability and pattern matching.
ParadigmMulti-paradigm: supports both object-oriented and functional programming.Purely functional programming.
TypingStatically typed with powerful type inference and advanced type system.Statically typed with strong type inference, focuses on simplicity and safety.
PerformanceRuns on the JVM (and Scala Native/JS), generally high performance, benefits from JVM optimizations.Compiles to Erlang BEAM or JavaScript, performance is good for concurrent workloads but not as fast as JVM for CPU-bound tasks.
Libraries and frameworksRich ecosystem, many libraries and frameworks (e.g., Akka, Play, Spark).Smaller ecosystem, fewer libraries, but can interoperate with Erlang/Elixir libraries.
Community and supportLarge, mature community with extensive resources and industry adoption.Small but growing community, less industry adoption, more niche support.
Learning curveSteep learning curve due to advanced features and complex syntax.Gentle learning curve, designed for simplicity and approachability.
