Reia is a programming language that runs on the Erlang virtual machine (BEAM). It combines features of both functional and object-oriented programming, aiming to provide the concurrency and fault-tolerance benefits of Erlang with a more familiar syntax for developers accustomed to languages like Ruby or Python.

About Reia
Reia was created in 2008 by Tony Arcieri. It was designed to run on the Erlang virtual machine (BEAM) to leverage Erlang's concurrency and fault-tolerance features while providing a more familiar syntax for developers used to object-oriented and functional programming languages like Ruby and Python. The project aimed to make these advanced features more accessible, but it eventually became inactive.
Strengths of Reia included its ability to leverage Erlang's concurrency and fault-tolerance features while offering a more familiar syntax for developers used to object-oriented and functional programming languages. Weaknesses included its limited adoption, lack of ongoing development, and the small community. Competitors included Erlang itself, Elixir (another language on the BEAM), and other concurrent programming languages like Scala and Go.
