Gleam: A statically typed language for the Erlang VM
Forgive me, I'm ignorant -- what's erlang for. "Concurrent applications" is the raison d'etre I see espoused. What's that mean?Does it make concurrent applications easier to write? Does it make it easier to use the SIMD instruction set, how hard is it to get a function written in erlang to run on a gpu?Is it like nodejs but more performant? I appreciate anyone who has answers here, I try to position all the relatively interesting things I don't have much time to dive in to in a mental model with opportunities for future promotion.
