Why am I interested in Elixir?
I'm currently building a video course hosting platform with Elixir / Phoenix and all I can really say is this has been the nicest tech stack I've ever used in 20 years of web development.IMO it really does feel like you get the best of everything (developer productivity, developer happiness, great language for creating maintainable code, OTP and the BEAM bring a lot to the table, it's memory efficient, tracing code without a ton of experience is very doable, it's fast as balls and Phoenix channels / LiveView is a great abstraction on websockets). I find myself fist pumping all over the place as I make progress towards this app while learning as I go.I don't think I've liked a technology this much ever and I'm honestly surprised it's not already more popular than it already is. I've been around for the release of a lot of major frameworks and technologies (Rails / Django, Node, Go, etc.). Nothing has impressed me this much. It truly feels like it's a zero compromise environment to write code in and I hope I can still be using it in 10+ years.
