Chatter is a real-time chat web application that demonstrates gleam's ability to take advantage of the actor model when developing concurrent programs.

Hello! CI is failing due to the generated README being edited here.

Cool application! I had a little look through it and I'm not sure it would be best to use as an example for others to learn from as there's some issues with how actors are being used, due to being a learning project. Ideally applications used as examples would show best practices, and not result in people copying over any of the issues.

That's understandable. Additionally, could you provide insight on how to use actors better. It's hard to find this information as the language is so new.

OTP isn't part of Gleam specifically, so any existing books on it from Erlang or Elixir will teach what you need to know. Elixir in Action and Learn You Some Erlang and Designing for Scale with Erlang/OTP are great books

Ok thanks. I am going to close this and see what I can do.
