Great post, Elixir has come a long way but more importantly had a great foundation to build on out of the gate. One of the best maintainer communities I've seen for a language + framework in a while. Such a strong + clear open source vision set on building a flexible and robust platform/language. Ty Jose + Chris!!!
Very proud to have been using Phoenix + Elixir for our startup, https://www.distru.com, since day 1 and it was one of our best stack decisions. The language is so pleasent to code in, brings functional programming concepts, can do powerful things with GenServer, has great default performance, and enables us to tackle concurrency problems in a way rails just wasn't built for.
Can't wait to continue meeting great Elixir devs as we grow :). If any devs are interested in working on a cannabis startup built on Elixir since day one, I'd love to talk. blaine@distru.com

Not to mention the constant surprises from Elixir!! There's a built in scalable nosql database in the VM (https://elixirschool.com/en/lessons/specifics/mnesia/)!?!? And a key value store (https://elixirschool.com/en/lessons/specifics/ets/)?!? It's so fun to experiment with!
