As somebody who has been interested in learning more about Gleam, what drove you towards this language and what has made you want to build more with it?
Hello! I am the creator of armadillo and a graduating college student
I have been exploring Gleam since its stable release and have been an active member (at least I think so) of the community for a year now. I tend to be quite... selective with programming languages, especially regarding syntax and minor design details. Gleam was my introduction to functional programming and the BEAM ecosystem, and I fell in love with how intuitive it is to learn and apply to my projects
My first major project in Gleam was "ewe", a web server that began as a learning experiment and eventually became my college graduation project. Since then I have contributed to and developed other packages. I am incredibly grateful that Gleam became my gateway to open source contributions. I have always wanted to be part of a collaborative community of talented developers, and I am glad to have found that here
I created armadillo to learn about DNS and to gain more experience with developing apps in Gleam, while also offering the community an open codebase to reference and use
It is wonderful to finally be part of a community I had been searching for :)
