hey, thanks for the clarification. I was under the impression that Gleam had a few shortcomings re: OTP, like missing APIs or the need to fall back to Erlang. Many people I know who work regularly with Elixir hold similar opinions - do you have any idea what happened there? Is there a lack of publicity for this support? Is it a documentation problem?
I presume they checked out Gleam years ago, or their investigation was more shallow.
That aside, it is normal in Elixir to use Erlang OTP directly. Neither Elixir nor Gleam provides an entirely alternative API for OTP. It is a strength that BEAM languages call each other, not a weakness.
