I have compiled the above list from a mix of most frequently used languages: https://www.statista.com/statistics/793628/worldwide-developer-survey-most-used-languages/ and languages from the functional programming realm.

Which one would be missing?
Which one would you not add (or remove from above list) even if there was a contributor creating them?

It would be good to make some more structured way of making these, to ensure they all cover the same topics. How could we do that?

inoas commented 3 months ago

Write a small gleam app and maintain the topics in that app via git and let users contribute via a web interface? If it is file based we can merge back the changes to upstream?

One note:

to ensure they all cover the same topics

I am also doubtful that exactly the same topics is always good idea.

I think there should be a shared core but then there are topics where it is worth to explain specific differences between A and gleam but not between B and gleam.

lpil commented 3 months ago

Editing via GitHub is fine, the authors will be programmers. More I want them all to cover the same basic topics as a minimum, and I want it to be easy to see what topics are unfinished.

Maybe a small gleam application?
