It is called OCaml. Fast compilation and state of the art statically typed functional programming.

Sure it is a bit more complex than Gleam and the syntax is different but you can manage.

I like OCaml in theory a lot! This is not a bad suggestion. The problem is it doesn't have the awesome concurrency model of Go (just barely got regular threads recently), and IMHO the build and package management situation for OCaml isn't very good. Plus, I don't know, I just subjectively don't like using it, and the ecosystem isn't very good. Ecosystem is very important for me.
