How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Fsharp to Erlang in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Fsharp code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Erlang code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Fsharp to Erlang using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.

Key differences between Fsharp and Erlang
Characteristic | Fsharp | Erlang |
---|---|---|
Syntax | F# has a syntax similar to OCaml and supports functional programming. | Erlang has a unique syntax that is based on Prolog and supports concurrent programming. |
Paradigm | F# supports functional, imperative, and object-oriented programming paradigms. | Erlang is primarily a functional programming language with support for concurrent programming. |
Typing | F# is a statically typed language with type inference. | Erlang is a dynamically typed language. |
Performance | F# is known for its performance and can be highly optimized. | Erlang is designed for fault-tolerant and highly available systems, but may not have the same level of performance as F#. |
Libraries and frameworks | F# has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including integration with .NET libraries. | Erlang has a rich set of libraries and frameworks for building concurrent and distributed systems. |
Community and support | F# has an active and growing community with good support from Microsoft. | Erlang has a smaller but dedicated community with good support from the Erlang/OTP team. |
Learning curve | F# has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with functional programming. | Erlang has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with concurrent programming. |
