> Aye, but this is the same as Elixir; it doesn't have full support for OTP and you are expected to use Erlang modules when you want the rest.
Ya that's what I was asking about, mostly the interop. But I can just look it up :). Thanks, Louis!
Didn't even think to check for registry modules. The impression I got from the Gleam OTP readme is "can't use this yet", but that was overly pessimistic of me. I really need to give it a try in my next foray out of my comfort zone.
RE named processes, that's coming in the next release, and there's already multiple registry modules implemented in Gleam, including one funded by the Erlang Ecosystem Foundation.
