Works like a charm (installed with asdf under Ubuntu)

Its actually easier than setting up Elixir.

asdf plugin add gleam
asdf install gleam 0.18.1
asdf global gleam 0.18.1 
gleam new my_project
cd my_project
gleam run

Developer experience is extremely important to us, so we will continue to build upon and improve it in future releases. The features we’re most looking forward to are Language Server Protocol for IDE features in all editors…

Great to see, that LS is next.

Just to add to your answer…

Now the latest is 0.18.1. You can get the list with

asdf list-all gleam

and You should…

cd my_project

… before running gleam run.

I am curious to see what if Erlang and Rust had a baby :slight_smile:

That could be a nice part of Gleam’s marketing :003:

It certainly turned out well for Elixir (Ruby+Erlang).
