Comments

You can add comments to your Gleam code with //. They help explain intent and improve readability.

Here’s a simple example that adds a comment above a print call:

import gleam/io

pub fn main() {
  // Show a message
  io.println("Hello world!")
}

For longer explanations, use // at the start of each line:

// This is a longer comment.
// Each line starts with //
// so the compiler treats it as a comment.
