I've been programming heavily in Elixir for the past 2+ years and I've become increasingly happier with the language, its growing ecosystem, and the Erlang/OTP.

I first came across Erlang a few years back, while I was researching more exotic programming languages, but for some reason Erlang never felt like home. I know plenty of people like it, but personally, I found it difficult to get accustomed to its syntax, especially after having spent most of my time in Python.

But as soon as I discovered Elixir, I got hooked. All the advantages (and disadvantages) of using the Erlang/OTP programming model, while experiencing a nicer, developer-friendlier, and more familiar interface.

Our work is seldom, if ever, not dependent upon the sweat and labor of other people.

So, thank you Elixir team! Elixir is truly a joy.
