This is my current mental model for picking a language, considering just the language itself:
- Backends: Gleam or other BEAM
- Web frontend: Gleam
- Mobile apps: Dart + Flutter
- Specialized mobile apps: Swift and Kotlin
- Blazing fast: Zig
- Blazing fast and safest: Rust
- Fast performance and iteration: Go
Would love to hear additions and corrections.
My only problem with this is I'm not a fan of Go's syntax and I wonder what's a good alternative. Heared good things about OCaml but didn't check it out yet.
