I decided to extract the core of the Gleam compiler into a library
I did it in 3 sessions over 4 days, moved 105 files, edited a couple thousand lines, and the first time it type checked it just worked.
Types rock.

Love types for this. It’s like an incredible superpower that I feel lost without!
Yes! Remember going to do Rails dev after doing Rust for years and being just so lost. I can kind of see why so many devs gave up Java in Melbourne, but even going back to that was pretty freeing (wrt. keeping track of stuff in my head).
