Okay fellow f5bot gleam watchers - is gleam ready to start learning / using yet? It doesn't have to be ready for production code, but it seems like when I first heard about it, it was not ready for 'download compiler on OS of choice of big 2 OSes, follow this hello world, start shipping hobby apps'.

Are we at that point yet?

> Are we at that point yet?

Yes.

Shameless plug: I'm giving a talk at Elixir Conf next week on using Gleam with Phoenix LiveView. One of my demos is an emulator I wrote in Gleam that I render and control with LiveView, in the browser. Plum Mail [0] is also a Y Combinator funded startup implemented in Gleam.

The community + ecosystem is small and in its early stages, but there's a lot of exciting stuff happening.

Where is the community located? I can't find slack channel
There's an IRC channel on Freenode: #gleam-lang
