If you feel any #ImposterSyndrome as a programmer about calling yourself an "engineer", just start writing your backend server software in #Erlang. Yes, you'll have to learn #Prolog syntax. Yes, you'll have to learn how to do fully functional programming with only immutable data structures. Yes, it is fully asynchronous and designed for reliability and fault tolerance. Yes, it is highly dynamic and can do things like update running software remotely with new code with zero downtime.

I'm speaking at CodeBEAM Europe 2025! 😁

I'll be exploring how Gleam's type system naturally fits with Domain-Driven Design principles. The language's structs, union types, and functional approach let you model business domains in ways that are both technically sound and genuinely understandable to domain experts.

Plus, you get all the reliability and concurrency benefits that come with running on the BEAM.

See you in Berlin this November!
