    Description : type-safe functional programming language

    Gleam is a friendly language for building type-safe systems that scale.
    Gleam is statically-typed and compiles to both JavaScript and BEAM
    bytecode, and is able to interop with JavaScript and other BEAM
    languages such as Erlang and Elixir. Gleam provides a compiler, build
    tool, formatter, editor integrations, and package manager.

    The language has generated a sizable interest and an active community. Availability in Debian would be a nice addition.

    I intend to maintain the package with the help of
    Yifei Zhan <yifei@zhan.science>. The Rust build dependencies will be
    maintained with the help of the Rust team. All other dependencies are
    already available in Debian and will be maintained by their respective maintainers.
