Gleam programming language joins Tangled platform
Original: Gleam Is Now on Tangled
Why This Matters
Gleam's adoption of Tangled signals growing developer interest in decentralized code hosting alternatives.
The Gleam programming language project has established a presence on Tangled, a decentralized code hosting platform. The repository, mirrored at tangled.org/gleam.run/gleam, has accumulated 168 stars and 1 fork, with over 11,000 commits to date.
Gleam, a type-safe, scalable systems programming language, now has an official repository on Tangled, an alpha-stage decentralized code hosting service. The project page at tangled.org/gleam.run/gleam shows 168 stars and more than 11,000 commits, reflecting active development. The codebase is primarily written in Rust (92.9%), with JavaScript (3.6%), Gleam itself (1.8%), and smaller portions of HTML, CSS, Erlang, and other languages. Recent commits include performance improvements to the formatter and JavaScript code generation by skipping unnecessary grapheme counting, fixes to generated Erlang code for externals, and language server enhancements such as including type names in code action titles. Gleam's move to Tangled follows a broader trend of open-source projects exploring decentralized or federated alternatives to centralized platforms like GitHub.
