I'm building my first non-toy app in LiveView. I'm blown away by how quickly I can move with it and love how Phoenix encourages DDD practices.
I'm a bit saddened that Elixir isn't bigger than it is. It's such a great entry into the world of BEAM and functional programming yet I've read more than once that people aren't interested because "it looks like Ruby and I don't like Ruby". There are some more legit reasons as well like it's dynamic, but I wish people would stop getting so hung up on syntax and actually focus on what the technology can do.
