alt Hacker NewsAh, that’s good feedback. I agree, that documentation is misleading. I’ll fix them ASAP.
> Elixir also provides for much OTP functionality via direct access to the Erlang libraries.
This is the norm in Gleam too! Gleam’s primary design constraint is interop with Erlang code, so using these libraries is straightforward and commonplace.
Thanks for the clarification. I've read about Gleam here and there, and played with it a bit, and thought there was no way to directly access OTP through the Erlang libraries.
This can be just my lack of familiarity with the ecosystem though.
Gleam looks lovely and IMO is the most readable language that runs on the BEAM VM. Good job!
