How does this compare to Gleam, in terms of goals, features, etc.?
Curious what the E, e, e, L and G stand for in the logo.
This is 100% LLM generated; website, documentation and tutorials. There is no link to downloads or a repository. No way to use anything.

Why should anyone care about this?

The project looks very young. I do like the goals of the project though, and I like that it's on the BEAM.
It absolutely drives me nuts when people spend so much time building something but make it difficult to show you what they’ve built.

A short code snippet (with syntax highlighting thank you) should be the first thing on your page.

I do not have to scroll through a huge wall of text (probably AI generated), 2 images (definitely AI generated), miss it, start clicking links, still not find it, hit the back button, scroll through the slop again, etc.

I want to see the thing, I don’t care about what you have to say about the thing until I can get a sense of the thing.

Everything smells of AI here, is it the world's first slop language?
I would like to see some interesting code examples showcasing the main features.
Super exciting. Can't wait to use this in production. Imagine, using AI to write with a language built with AI, building AI products that AI people use.
please keep the erlang ecosystem out of the llm griftosphere. jesus christ.
This is not a real language, it's pure LLM slop.

Just look at the so-called sort example from the repo:

    def sort(list: List(T)): List(T) where Ord(T) =
        match list do
            [] -> []
            [pivot | rest] -> sort(rest)
        end
> Perfect for : Trading systems, industrial control, Medical devices, aerospace applications

Regulator, here is some code in an unknown and poorly documented language with no operational experience. The compiler was written using AI and no one has audited it.

That seems like an excellent idea to me.
