Gleam is a friendly statically typed language that targets the BEAM and JavaScript. In this talk we'll take a tour of Gleam by looking at its features, the ecosystem, and its interop with other BEAM languages as well as Javascript. All the while we'll be building up a distributed audio application that allows multiple clients to play with music and audio in real time.

Prior knowledge of Gleam isn't necessary to get something out of this talk, and both those that are curious and skeptical of static typing are encouraged to attend and learn how Gleam might fit into their practice.
