The creator is a veteran of both Elixir and Ocaml worlds, and is actively building community around the project too[0]. There are also development streams that are pretty educating[1][2]. As a fan of Erlang runtime, but also wanting static types in my code, I've been trying this out and fairly enjoying so far.
There is also Gleam[3] for static types on BEAM, and as beautiful and simple as the language is, its a bit too barebones and the ecosystem is fairly lacking (as expected of a young language). Ocaml has much better story in both, so I naturally found this more fun.
