Gleam: Polishing syntax for stability

A new Gleam blog post/announcement has been posted!

Gleam is a type safe and scalable language for the Erlang virtual machine and JavaScript runtimes. Today Gleam v0.32.0 has been published, a release that focuses on getting Gleam ready for a v1.0 release by making some breaking changes before the language is declared stable.

Resolving import ambiguity

Here is what Gleam’s import syntax looks like:
import gleam/option.{Option, Some, None}

pub fn greet(option: Option(String)) -> String {
  case option {
    Some(name) -> "Hello " <> name
    None -> "Hello, World!"
  }
}
Here the module gleam/option is being imported, and the values Some, and None and the type Option are being imported in an unqualified manner so they can be referred to without the module_name. prefix.

...
